Answer

(i) The cumulative frequency table for given data is :

ClassesTally MarksFrequencyCumulative frequency
0 - 10III33
10 - 20II25 (2 + 3)
20 - 30IIII IIII I1116 (11 + 5)
30 - 40IIII IIII IIII III1834 (18 + 16)
40 - 50-034 (0 + 34)
50 - 60III337 (3 + 34)
60 - 70II239 (2 + 37)
70 - 80III342 (3 + 39)
80 - 90IIII547 (5 + 42)
90 - 100III350 (3 + 47)

(ii) From table,

Class 30 - 40 has the largest frequency distribution table.

(iii) From table,

34 students score less than 40 marks.

(iv) Total marks = 100

60% marks = 60100×100\dfrac{60}{100} \times 100 = 60.

From tables, students scoring less than 60 = 37

Total students = 50.

Students scoring more than 60% = 50 - 37 = 13.

Hence, 13 students scored more than 60% marks.
