Write in your notebook the way to organize a grouped data distribution into intervals.

Method used to study the behavior of a set of quantitative data when they are
numerous and group in intervals of constant amplitude.

Amplitude = Width of each interval


Constant = The same for each interval.
Example: Organize the distribution of grouped data in intervals of constant width.

74 76 70 63 67 76 87 48 89
Procedure that must be taken into account

First: We determine the range or set of values.


We are looking for the highest number 90 and the lowest number 34 in this case.
Range = No greater than less No. smaller (90 - 34 = 56 values)

Second: Select the number of class intervals, which can range from five to twelve.
to say that the table in its column No. 1 can contain from 5, 6, 7, 8 …… 12.

Amplitude of the interval = Range 56 = 8


Not of the intervals 7

The range of each class interval is to contain 8 values.

NOTE: To know the exact amplitude of each interval, when we add, we subtract one less, and when we subtract,
we add one more.

In this case: We add


The value 34 + 8–1 = 34–41
That is to say, we contain 8 values: 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, and 41.
And so on

The X symbolizes the variable whether it be results, grades, salaries, ages, etc.
The f symbolizes the frequency, that is, the number of times a value is repeated when we clean data.
∑ symbolizes the sum of.
N symbolizes the number of frequency cases presented.

Third: According to the data presented in intervals, we observe that it has apparent limits.
Inferior and superior
34 –41
42 –49 and so on.

Fourth: Real limits occupy the third column of the table and correspond to the lower equivalent fractional limit and,
superior represented as Lriy Lrs

Fifth: Cumulative frequency = fa, which represents the consecutive semi-sum of the frequencies occupying the fourth.
column. For example: the first cumulative frequency has no previous frequency, so it is simply copied
from the normal frequency. While the second interval corresponding to 3 previous frequencies has two for it.
that are added consecutively. For example, 2+3= 5.

Sixth: Class marks or midpoints are symbolized by Xs, which consists of adding the apparent limits of each.
interval and the result is divided by two this occupies the fifth column. For example 34+41= 75 / 2 = 37.5

Seventh: Percentage of frequencies which is represented by %f and occupies the sixth column.
Formula: %f = fx1000

For example 2 x 100 = 200 = 4.44%
