Question
A cumulative frequency distribution is constructed and the cumulative frequency for the third class is 100. Assuming the frequency for the next class is not empty (i.e. 0 observations in the class) The cumulative frequency for the next (non-empty) class will be __________ .
less than 100
equal to 100
next class frequency minus 100
D
100 minus the next class frequency
Please explain how you got your answer
100 plus the next class frequency
Aless than 100
Bequal to 100
Cnext class frequency minus 100
D
100 minus the next class frequency
Please explain how you got your answer
100 plus the next class frequency
Explanation / Answer
In cumulative frequency, add current cumulative to next class's frequency to get next's cumulative frequency, here next class's cumulative frequency will be
100 plus the next class frequency
100 plus the next class frequency
