Question 21. The blood groups of 30 students of class VIII are recorded as follows:
A, B, O, O, AB, O, A, O, B, A, O, B, A, O, O, A, AB, O, A, A, O, O, AB, B, A, O, B, A, B, O
Represent this data in the form of a frequency distribution table. Find out which is the most common and which is the most rarest blood group among these students.
Solution:
Given that,
9 students out of the given blood groups have blood group A, 6 as B, 3 as AB and 12 as O
The frequency table representing the data along with the corresponding frequency is as follows:
Blood group |

10, 3, 4, 12, 2, 8, 15, 1, 17, 6
3, 2, 8, 5, 9, 6, 8, 7, 14, 2.
(i) Make a frequency distribution table for this data, taking class width 5 and one of the class intervals as 5 – 10.
(ii) How many children watched television for 15 or more hours a week.
Solution:
(i) The following class intervals are 0 – 5, 5 – 10, 10 – 15 constructed.
The grouped frequency distribution table taking into account these class intervals is as follows:
Hours
|
Number of children
|
0 – 5

|
Total=30
|
(ii) The number of children who watched TV for at least 15 hours a week is 2, which implies that the number of children in the class interval 15 – 20 is equivalent to 2.
