According to the Department of Food and Nutrition, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of calcium for adults is 800

mg.
A nutritionist thinks that people with are determined for a sample of 40 workers with income below the poverty line.
The data income below the poverty line averages less than the RDA of 800 mg Calcium intakes obtained is presented in freque

Step 1: Constructing the Frequency Distribution Table (FDT)


Total number of observations (n = 40)

Frequency Distribution Table Breakdown:


1. Class Marks (Midpoints):
o 101+200/2
o 201-300/2
o 301-400/2
o 401-500/2
o 501-600/2
o 601-700/2

2. Class Boundaries:
-0.5, +0.5
o 100 - 200 = 100.5-200.5
o 201 - 300 = 200.5-300.5
o 301 – 400 = 300.5-400.5
o 400.5-500.5
o 500.5-600.5
o 600.5-700.5

3. Relative Frequency
f/n
o 1/40 = 0.025
o 1/40 = 0.025
o 9/40 = 0.225
o 13/40 = 0.325
o 10/40 = 0.25
o 6/40 = 0.15

4. Relative Frequency Percentage


o 2.5%
o 2.5%
o 22.5%
o 32.5%
o 25%
o 15%
o 15%
5. Cumulative Frequency (Less Than):
o 1
o 1+1=2
o 2 + 9 = 11
o 11 + 13 = 24
o 24 + 10 = 34
o 34 + 6 = 40

6. Cumulative Frequency (Greater Than):


o 40
o 40 – 1 = 39
o 39 – 9 = 30
o 30 – 13 = 17
o 17 – 10 = 7
o 7–6=1

Constructing the Table

601 - 700 6 650.5 600.5 - 700.5 0.15 15% 40
