Sign In
Start by making a frequency table.
To draw a histogram, we will start by making a frequency table.
The minimum value is 5 and the maximum is 60. In this case, intervals of 12 seem reasonable. Let's list the intervals in the first column of our frequency table.
Restaurant Waiting Times (min) | Frequency |
---|---|
5 - 16 | |
17 - 28 | |
29 - 40 | |
41 - 52 | |
53 - 64 |
Now, let's count the number of values in each interval. 20, 35, 15, 25, 5, 10, 40, 30, 10, 50, 20, 60, 10, 8 Looking at the data, we can see that there are 6 values in the first interval, 3 values in the second interval, 3 values in the third interval, 1 value in the fourth interval and 1 value in the fifth interval. Now we can complete the second column of our table.
Restaurant Waiting Times (min) | Frequency |
---|---|
5 - 16 | 6 |
17 - 28 | 3 |
29 - 40 | 3 |
41 - 52 | 1 |
53 - 64 | 1 |
