Histograms Part A – Plotting Part B - Reading
Part A- Plotting • Random set of data
Important Formula • Height = Frequency / Width • H = F / W • W * H = F • F = W * H • Area = W * H • Therefore, • Area = Frequency • Note : Width refers to the range
How to read? • Since W * H = F = Area • You take the width of the bar and multiply it by the width to get the frequency. • Eg. From the histogram, find the frequency of people aged 70 ≤ y<120 in Lalatown. • 120 – 70 = 50 (width) • Height = 10 (Frequency Density) • 50 * 10 = 500 • Therefore, the frequency of people aged 70 ≤ y<120 in Lalatownis 500.
