The class interval of the following classes is :
10-20, 20-30, 30-40, 40-50
Class Interval Definition
The class interval in statistics represents the range or width of each class in a frequency distribution. It is the difference between the upper and lower class limits.
Class Interval Calculation
To find the class interval for the given classes (10-20, 20-30, 30-40, 40-50), we calculate the difference between the upper and lower limits for any class.
- For the class 10-20:
- Upper Limit = 20
- Lower Limit = 10
- Class Interval = Upper Limit - Lower Limit
- $\text{Class Interval} = 20 - 10 = 10$
- For the class 20-30:
- Upper Limit = 30
- Lower Limit = 20
- Class Interval = Upper Limit - Lower Limit
- $\text{Class Interval} = 30 - 20 = 10$
Similarly, the class interval for 30-40 is $30 - 20 = 10$, and for 40-50 is $40 - 30 = 10$. All the classes share the same interval.
Therefore, the class interval for the given classes is 10.
