100 pupils in a school have heights as tabulated below :
| Height (in cm) | No. of pupils |
|---|---|
| 121 - 130 | 12 |
| 131 - 140 | 16 |
| 141 - 150 | 30 |
| 151 - 160 | 20 |
| 161 - 170 | 14 |
| 171 - 180 | 8 |
Draw the ogive for the above data and from it determine the median (use graph paper).

A survey regarding height (in cm) of 60 boys belonging to class 10 of a school was conducted. The following data was recorded :
Height (in cm) No. of boys 135 - 140 4 140 - 145 8 145 - 150 20 150 - 155 14 155 - 160 7 160 - 165 6 165 - 170 1 Taking 2 cm = height of 10 cm on one axis and 2 cm = 10 boys along the other axis, draw an ogive of the above distribution. Use the graph to estimate the following :
(i) median
(ii) lower quartile
(iii) if above 158 is considered as the tall boy of the class, find the number of boys in the class who are tall.
The following distribution represents the height of 160 students of a school.
Height (in cm) No. of students 140 - 145 12 145 - 150 20 150 - 155 30 155 - 160 38 160 - 165 24 165 - 170 16 170 - 175 12 175 - 180 8 Draw an ogive for the given distribution taking 2 cm = 5 cm of height on one axis and 2 cm = 20 students on the other axis. Using the graph, determine :
(i) The median height.
(ii) The inter quartile range.
(iii) The number of students whose height is above 172 cm.
