Grouped frequency tables worksheet: Answers and working
Part A: Working out and filling in
1. 3, 4, 3, 2
Tally each score into its class and count: 3, 4, 3, 2, adding up to 12.
2. 24
The frequencies of the classes from 40 to 89 add up to the number of members: 1 + 3 + 6 + 6 + 8 = 24.
3. 2
The row 60–69 has 2 marks (each four-and-a-bar is 5): 2 members.
4. 11
'70 or more' starts at the class beginning with 70: add its frequency and all after it, 11 members.
5. 30
'50 or more' starts at the class beginning with 50: add its frequency and all after it, 30 members.
6. 10
The '?' is the class 50–59. The frequencies add up to 37, and the other classes hold 27: 37 − 27 = 10.
7. 84%
50 or more: 21 members; 21 ÷ 25 × 100% = 84%.
8. 37.5%
80 or more: 15 members; 15 ÷ 40 × 100% = 37.5%.
Part B: Choose, or true or false
9. False
Fewer than 70: the classes before 70, 17 members; 70 or more: 33 members.
10. B. 70–79
The greatest frequency is 14: see which class it belongs to.
11. B. 40–49、50–59、60–69、70–79
Classes must run from small to large, not overlap, leave no gaps, and take in all the data from 49 to 75: 40–49, 50–59, 60–69, 70–79.
12. A. 20–29、30–39、40–49、50–59
Classes must run from small to large, not overlap, leave no gaps, and take in all the data from 22 to 53: 20–29, 30–39, 40–49, 50–59.
Part C: Word problems
Marking: 2 for the working, 1 for the answer, 1 for the sentence.
13. 9
Of the five classes from 30 kg, the greatest frequency is 10, the least 1: 10 − 1 = 9.
14. 3, 6, 2, 4
Tally each into its class: 3, 6, 2, 4; check they add up to 15.
15. B. 40–44、45–49、50–54、55–59
Classes mustn't overlap or leave gaps, and must take in everything from 42 to 55: 40–44, 45–49, 50–54, 55–59, 5 whole numbers each.
16. 27, 18
40 or more: the classes from 40 on, 27; fewer than 40: 9. 27 − 9 = 18.
17. 7
Falling short is scoring under 40: add the classes before 40, 7 players.
18. True
23 made 70 or more; the team has 27, half of which is 13.5. Compare 23 with 13.5.
