Answer:
The number of the class containing the largest score can be found in frequency 24 and the class is 98 - 103
For the third class 78 - 83 ; the upper limit = 83
The class width for this histogram 5
The number of students that took the exam simply refers to the frequency is 84
The percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5 is 53%
Step-by-step explanation:
The objective of this question is to use the following histogram that shows the exam scores for a Pre-algebra class to answer the question given:
NOW;
The table given in the question can be illustrated as follows:
S/N Class Score Frequency
1 68 - 73 70.5 0
2 73 - 78 75.5 4
3 78 - 83 80.5 8
4 83 - 88 85.5 12
5 88 - 93 90.5 16
6 93 - 98 95.5 20
7 98 - 103 100.5 24
TOTAL: 84
a) The number of the class containing the largest score can be found in frequency 24 and the class is 98 - 103
b) For the third class 78 - 83 ; the upper limit = 83 ( since the upper limit is derived by addition of 5 to the last number showing in the highest value specified by the number in the class interval which is 78 ( i.e 78 + 5 = 83))
c) The class width for this histogram 5 ; since it is the difference between the upper and lower boundaries limit of the given class.
So , from above the difference in any of the class will definitely result into 5
d) The number of students that took the exam simply refers to the frequency ; which is (0+4+8+12+16+20+24) = 84
e) Lastly; the percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5 is ;
⇒[tex]\dfrac{20+24}{84} *100[/tex]
= 0.5238095 × 100
= 52.83
To the nearest percentage ;the percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5 is 53%
Answer:
1. 98-103 (6th class)
2. 88
3. 5
4. 84
5. 52%
Step-by-step explanation:
Find attached the frequency table.
The class of exam scores falls between (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6).
The exam score ranged from 68-103
1) The largest number of exam scores = 24
The largest number of exam scores is in the 6th class = 98 -103
Step 2 of 5:
The upper class limit is the higher number in an interval. Third class interval is 83-88
The upper class limit of the third class 88.
Step 3 of 5:
Class width = upper class limit - lower class limit
We can use any of the class interval to find this as the answer will be the same. Using the interval between 73-78
Class width = 78 - 73
Class width for the histogram = 5
Step 4 of 5:
The total of students that took the test = sum of all the frequency
= 0+4+8+12+16+20+24 = 84
The total of students that took the test = 84
Step 5 of 5:Find the percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5
Number of student that scored higher than 95.5 = 20 + 24 = 44
Percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5 = [(Number of student that scored higher than 95.5)/(total number of students that took the test)] × 100
= (44/84) × 100 = 0.5238 × 100 = 52.38%
Percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5 = 52% (nearest percent)
