Cumulative Frequency Distribution of the more than type
Example: Consider the cumulative frequency distribution table as given below.
Marks | No of Students |
0-10 | 5 |
10-20 | 3 |
20-30 | 4 |
30-40 | 3 |
40-50 | 3 |
50-60 | 4 |
60-70 | 7 |
70-80 | 9 |
80-90 | 7 |
90-100 | 8 |
Solution:
Find the no of students with score more than or equal to lower interval.
Marks | No of Students (f) | Cumulative frequencies (cf) |
More than or equal to 0 | 5 | 53 |
More than or equal to 10 | 3 | 53-5=48 |
More than or equal to 20 | 4 | 48-3=45 |
More than or equal to 30 | 3 | 45-4=41 |
More than or equal to 40 | 3 | 41-3=38 |
More than or equal to 50 | 4 | 38-3=35 |
More than or equal to 60 | 7 | 35-4=31 |
More than or equal to 70 | 9 | 31-7=24 |
More than or equal to 80 | 7 | 24-9=15 |
More than or equal to 90 | 8 | 15-7=8 |
The distribution given above is called
cumulative frequency distribution of the more than type.
