Create a histogram with five intervals from this data set:
21, 37, 56, 87, 32, 45, 77, 71, 65, 67, 21, 34
Step 1: Find the minimum and maximum values. Minimum:
Maximum:
Step 2: Round the minimum down to the nearest 10.
Range Minimum:
Step 3: Round the maximum up to the nearest 10.
Range Maximum:
Step 4: Calculate the range.
Range: 90 − 20 =
Step 5: Find the size of each interval by dividing the range by the number of intervals.
70/5 =
Step 6: The intervals are calculated by starting at the minimum and adding the interval size: 20 + 14 = 34.
Each interval is found by adding 14 to the end of the previous interval.
Step 7: Each square contains a number from the data set. Create the bars of the histogram by dragging each square to its appropriate location on the horizontal axis.
