LEARNING COMPETENCY:
What is It
The table formed above is called a frequency table. A frequency table shows clear and
definite information about a set of data. With the frequency table, we can easily know which class has
the lowest frequency. In statistics, numerical information may be treated as ungrouped or grouped data.
In both cases, tabular presentation is very important. This tabular presentation of data is called the
frequency distribution table.
Example 1. The following list shows the number of pets in each of the 40 families.
Solution:
The frequency table can be obtained by using the method of tallying discussed.
Lowest Score: 0
Highest Score: 4
Number of Pets Tally Frequency
0 IIII IIII 10
1 IIII IIII II 12
2 IIII IIII 9
3 IIII I 6
4 III 3
Total 40
Range = 29 – 10 = 19
Total number of potential scores = 19 + 1 = 20
2. Decide on the number of class intervals which is appropriate to the given set
of data. Divide the final number in Step 1 by the desired number of class
intervals to arrive at the width of class interval (i). If 10 is the desired number
of class intervals, then:
20
i= =2
10
3. Write the lowest score in the set of raw scores as the lower limit in the lowest
class interval. Add to this value i – 1 to obtain the upper limit in the lowest
class interval. The lowest score is 10. Thus, the lowest class interval is 10 –
11 since 10 + i – 1 = 10, therefore 10 + 2 – 1 = 11.
4. The next lower limit can be obtained by adding i to the lower limit of the
previous class interval. To get the corresponding upper limit for this class
interval, follow Step 3 or add i to the preceding upper limit. Thus, the next
lower limit is 12 and the corresponding upper limit is 13 since 10 + 2 = 12 and
11 + 2 = 13.
5. Continue Step 4 until the scores are included in their corresponding class
intervals.
28 – 29
26 – 27
24 – 25
22 – 23
20 – 21
18 – 19
16 – 17
14 – 15
12 – 13
10 – 11
6. Fill out the f column by following what we have done in the frequency
distribution.
Class Interval f
28 – 29 1
26 – 27 3
24 – 25 3
22 – 23 3
20 – 21 6
18 – 19 6
16 – 17 8
14 – 15 6
12 – 13 10
10 – 11 14
N = 60
