(1) For class interval 20 – 25 write the lower class limit and the upper class limit.
Solution:
The lower class limit is 20 and the upper class limit is 25.
(2) Find the class-mark of the class 35 – 40.
Solution:
Class Mark = \(\displaystyle \frac{\text{Lower Class Limit + Upper Class Limit}}{2}\)
∴ Class Mark = \(\displaystyle \frac{35 + 40}{2}\)
∴ Class Mark = \(\displaystyle \frac{75}{2}\)
∴ Class Mark = 37.5
Solution:
Let, the lower class limit be L and the upper class limit be H.
Class Mark = \(\displaystyle \frac{\text{Lower Class Limit + Upper Class Limit}}{2}\)
Class Mark = 10 ... (Given)
∴ \(\displaystyle 10 = \frac{\text{L + H}}{2}\)
∴ \(\displaystyle 10 \times 2 = \text{L + H}\)
∴ 20 = L + H
i.e. L + H = 20 ... (i)
Also, Class Width = 6 ... (Given)
∴ H − L = 6
∴ H = 6 + L
i.e. H = L + 6 ... (ii)
Substituting the value of H in (i),
L + H = 20 ... (i)
∴ L + L + 6 = 20
∴ 2L + 6 = 20
∴ 2L = 20 − 6
∴ 2L = 14
∴ L = \(\displaystyle \frac{14}{2}\)
∴ L = 7
Substituting the value of L in (ii),
H = L + 6 ... (ii)
∴ H = 7 + 6
∴ H = 13
Therefore, the class is 7 – 13.

(7)(i) In the tables given below, class-mark and frequencies is given. Construct the frequency tables taking inclusive and exclusive classes.
| Class Mark | Frequency |
| 5 | 3 |
| 15 | 9 |
| 25 | 15 |
| 35 | 13 |
Solution:
For the class having class mark 5, Let L be the lower class limit and H be the upper class limit.
Class Mark = \(\displaystyle \frac{\text{Upper Class Limit + Lower Class Limit}}{2}\)
\(\displaystyle \therefore 5 = \frac{\text{H} + \text{L}}{2}\)
\(\displaystyle \therefore 5 \times 2 = \text{H} + \text{L}\)
\(\displaystyle \therefore 10 = \text{H} + \text{L}\)
i.e. H + L = 10 ... (i)
And Class Width = 35 − 25 = 25 − 15 = 15 − 5 = 10
∴ H − L = 10 ... (ii)
Adding (i) and (ii):
| H | + | L | = | 10 | ... (i) | |
| + | H | − | L | = | 10 | ... (ii) |
| 2H | = | 20 |
\(\therefore \displaystyle \text {H} = \frac{20}{2}\)
∴ H = 10 ... (iii)
Substituting the value of H in (i):
H + L = 10
∴ 10 + L = 10
∴ L = 10 − 10
∴ L = 0 ... (iv)
∴ The first class is 0 – 10
∴ The other classes are: 10 – 20, 20 – 30, 30 – 40
∴ The exclusive classes are as follows:
| Class | Class Mark | Frequency |
| 0 – 10 | 5 | 3 |
| 10 – 20 | 15 | 9 |
| 20 – 30 | 25 | 15 |
| 30 – 40 | 35 | 13 |
And the inclusive classes are:
| Class | Class Mark | Frequency |
| 0 9 | 4.5 | 3 |
| 10 – 19 | 14.5 | 9 |
| 20 – 29 | 24.5 | 15 |
| 30 – 39 | 34.5 | 13 |
| 40 – 49 | 44.5 | ... |
(7)(ii) In the tables given below, class-mark and frequencies is given. Construct the frequency tables taking inclusive and exclusive classes.
| Class Mark | Frequency |
| 22 | 6 |
| 24 | 7 |
| 26 | 13 |
| 28 | 4 |
Solution:
For the class having class mark 22, Let L be the lower class limit and H be the upper class limit.
Class Mark = \(\displaystyle \frac{\text{Upper Class Limit + Lower Class Limit}}{2}\)
\(\displaystyle \therefore 22 = \frac{\text {H} + \text{L}}{2}\)
\(\displaystyle \therefore 22 \times 2 = \text {H} + \text{L}\)
\(\displaystyle \therefore 44 = \text {H} + \text{L}\)
i.e. H + L = 44 ... (i)
And Class Width = 28 − 26 = 26 − 24 = 24 − 22 = 2
∴ H − L = 2 ... (ii)
Adding (i) and (ii):
| H | + | L | = | 44 | ... (i) | |
| + | H | − | L | = | 2 | ... (ii) |
| 2H | = | 46 |
\(\therefore \displaystyle \text H = \frac{46}{2}\)
∴ H = 23 ... (iii)
Substituting the value of H in (i):
H + L = 44
∴ 23 + L = 44
∴ L = 44 − 23
∴ L = 21 ... (iv)
∴ The first class is 21 – 23
∴ The other classes are: 23 – 25, 25 – 27, 27 – 29
∴ The exclusive classes are as follows:
| Class | Class Mark | Frequency |
| 21 – 23 | 22 | 6 |
| 23 – 25 | 24 | 7 |
| 25 – 27 | 26 | 13 |
| 27 – 29 | 28 | 4 |
And the inclusive classes are:
| Class | Class Mark | Frequency |
| 21.5 – 22.5 | 22 | 6 |
| 23.5 – 24.5 | 24 | 7 |
| 25.5 – 26.5 | 26 | 13 |
| 27.5 – 28.5 | 28 | 4 |
| 29.5 – 30.5 | 30 | ... |
