Answer 1

The modal class, or mode class, is the class that has the highest frequency. Visually on a bar graph or histogram, it is the bar that is the tallest.

In this case, the highest frequency is 65 which corresponds to the class 30-40. The third frequency is the highest, so the third class is the modal class.

Answer: The interval 30-40 is the modal class
