FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION

TABLE
 THE FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION TABLE

• Frequency tells you how often something happened. The

frequency of an observation tells you the number of times
the observation occurs in the data. 
 UNGROUPED DATA
are the data you first gather from an experiment or
study. An ungrouped set of data is basically a list of
numbers
GROUPED DATA
are data formed by aggregating individual
observations of a variable into groups, so that a
frequency distribution of these groups serves as a
convenient means of summarizing or analyzing the data.
