Thread: Histogram help please!

I am stuck on this question.. I need to draw a histogram but don't know how! I need urgent help please.. Here is the table:

Area (A cm²) Frequency

0 < A ? 10 38
10 < A ? 25 36
25 < A ? 40 30
40 < A ? 60 46

I don't know how to draw the histogram because on this small grid i am given (on this past paper), it isn't big enough to have each square represent 2, which i think is the highest common factor..

Can anyone help? With a rough histogram..?

Thanks

Hello, Danielisew!

I need to draw a histogram.

You could cut a "slice" out of the histogram.

Code:

        |
     46 +                    *------*
        |                    |      |
        |                    |      |
     38 *------*             |      |
        |      |             |      |
     36 +      *------*      |      |
        |      |      |      |      |
        |      |      |      |      |
     30 +      |      *------*      |
        |      |      |      |      |
    ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~`~ ~ ~ ~ ~
    ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
        |      |      |      |      |
      0 +------+------+------+------+
        0     10     25     40     60

This is common practice when all the data is,
. . for example, between 100 and 110.
