| Class | Frequency |
|---|---|
| 0 - 5 | 2 |
| 5 - 10 | 5 |
| 10 - 15 | 18 |
| 15 - 20 | 14 |

Answer
Steps :
- Take 1 cm along x-axis = 5 units and 1 cm along y-axis = 4 units.
- Construct rectangles corresponding to the given data.
- In highest rectangle, draw two st. lines AC and BD from corners of the rectangles on either side of the highest rectangle to the opposite corners of the highest rectangle. Let P be the point of intersection of AC and BD.
- Through P, draw a vertical line to meet the x-axis at M. The abscissa of the point M represents 14.
Hence, the required mode = 14.
