Grouped frequency distribution

Method of organizing data into intervals

What frequency indicates

Number of data points in a range

Class intervals property (overlapping?)

Non-overlapping ranges

Class intervals width property

Usually equal width

Definition of ff (frequency)

Number of data points within each class interval

Definition of xx (midpoint)

Central value of a class interval

Formula for midpoint

Lower Bound+Upper Bound2\frac{\text{Lower Bound} + \text{Upper Bound}}{2}

Cumulative frequency definition

Running total of frequencies

Relative frequency definition

Proportion of data in each interval

Formula for relative frequency

FrequencyTotal Frequency\frac{\text{Frequency}}{\text{Total Frequency}}

How to determine range

Subtract smallest value from largest

Recommended number of intervals

Between 5 and 10 intervals

Interval width formula

RangeNumber of Intervals\frac{\text{Range}}{\text{Number of Intervals}}
