(a) Use the information to plot a cumulative frequency graph.

(b) Last year, 105 marks were required to achieve a Level 6. If that was used this year,
use the graph to estimate how many of the students would achieve a Level 6.

The maths department are setting their own grade boundaries this year.

least a Level 5.
Use the graph to estimate what mark they should choose to be the Level 5 grade
boundary.
