Practice makes perfect
Consider the given table.
Quiz Score 0-2 3-5 6-8 9-11 12-14
Frequency 1 3 6 16 4

We will display the given data in a histogram. Then we will find the distribution of the data. To do so, let's set the horizontal axis to be the Score and the vertical axis to be the Frequency. Finally, we will draw bars to represent the frequency of each interval. Let's do it!
