SJS Travel Agency, a nationwide local travel agency, offers special rates on summer period. The owner wants
additional information on the ages of those people taking travel tours. A random sample of 40 customers
taking travel tours last summer revealed these ages.

ANSWERS
First Step:
K = 1 + 3.322 log n

K = 1 + 3.322 log 40

K = 6.32 ≈ 6 Classes

Second Step:

The Range is R=B−S

¿ 77−18

Third Step:

Approximate class width is

C = 𝑅 ÷𝑘

C = 59 ÷ 6.32

C = 9.34 ≈ 10
