MHB Frequency Distribution: Time Reading Political Blog

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on creating a frequency distribution for the time spent reading a political blog, with data ranging from 0 to 49 minutes. Suggested classes include 0-9, 10-19, 20-29, 30-39, and 40-49. Participants are encouraged to calculate the number of readers in each class, identify midpoints, relative frequencies, and cumulative frequencies. The conversation highlights the need to determine which class has the highest and lowest frequency. Overall, the goal is to analyze reading habits through statistical representation.

Hi Trina, welcome to MHB!

Did you try anything? Where are you stuck?
Ah well, I'll just throw something out there to see what we can do.

The lowest value is 0 and the highest value is 49.
We can divide them into the classes 0-9, 10-19, 20-29, 30-39, and 40-49.
How many people spent between 0 and 9 minutes reading a political blog?
