Steps in Constructing A Frequency Distribution

This document outlines the steps to construct a frequency distribution: 1) determine the range of the data, 2) calculate class size by dividing the range by the desired number of classes between 5-15, 3) set up classes starting with the lowest value or smaller, 4) tally the data, 5) summarize the tally under the frequency column, and 6) determine class marks, boundaries, cumulative frequencies, and relative frequency.

Steps in Constructing a Frequency

Distribution:
1.Determine the range R of the data.
2.Calculate the class size by dividing the
range by the desired number of classes.
(usually from 5 15 classes depending on
the number of observations
!."et up the classes starting #ith the lo#est
value or a value smaller than the smallest
value.
$.%ally the data. (this column should not be
included in the final table
5."ummarize the tally under the fre&uency
column.
'.Determine the class mar(s) class
boundaries) cumulative fre&uencies and
*relative fre&uency for an e+panded
fre&uency distribution.
