and hence find the number of students who secured more than 49 marks by representing it
graphically.
24. Following table shows a frequency distribution for the speed of cars passing through at a
particular spot on a high way :
27. In a frequency distribution, the class-width is 4 and the lower limit of the first class
is 10. If there are six classes, find the upper limit of last class.
28. In a frequency distribution, the mid-value of a class is 15 and the class intervalsis 4.
Find the lower-limit of the class.
