The following table gives the distribution of students of two sections according to the marks obtained by them:

 







Represent the marks of the students of both the sections on the same graph by two frequency polygons. From the two polygons compare the performance of the two sections.

Solution:

The class-marks = (lower limit + upper limit)/2

For section A,

MarksClass-marksFrequency
0-1053
10-20159
20-302517
30-403512
40-50459

For section B,

MarksClass-marksFrequency
0-1055
10-201519
20-302515
30-403510
40-50451

Representing these data on a graph using two frequency polygon we get,









From the graph, we can conclude that the students of Section A performed better than Section B.
