Answer:

Histogram

Explanation:

A histogram is a type that has a wide application in the field of statistics. Histograms provide a visual interpretation of numerical data, indicating the number of data points within a range of values. These values are called classes or boxes. The frequency of data per class is illustrated by the use of a bar. The higher the rod, the higher the data values in the box. The following steps are followed to create a histogram

-Data of the group is sorted from small to large.

-The data group has an opening.

-The group width is calculated using the data opening and number of groups. The number of groups may be given to the question or asked to be determined by the solver.

The odd number closest to the number found is then taken as the group width. The reason for taking an odd number is to simplify the process by obtaining whole numbers in the calculations.

-The data is grouped in a group width and a table is created with the number of data belonging to each group.

-The groups in the table are placed on the vertical axis and the data numbers are placed on the horizontal axis and a histogram graph is created.
