Lesson Worksheet: Cumulative Frequency Graphs Mathematics
In this worksheet, we will practice drawing a cumulative frequency diagram and using it to make estimations about the data.
Q6:
By drawing a cumulative frequency curve, find the median of the following frequency distribution.
| Sets | 300–399 | 400–499 | 500–599 | 600–699 | 700– | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frequency | 9 | 11 | 6 | 10 | 14 | 50 |
Q7:
The table shows the distribution of daily wages of 100 workers at a factory. By drawing a cumulative frequency curve, estimate the median daily wage.
| Daily Wages (LE) | 15– | 20– | 25– | 30– | 35– | 40– | Total Number of Workers |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of Workers | 23 | 14 | 12 | 15 | 19 | 17 | 100 |
- A35 LE
- B30 LE
- C64 LE
- D49 LE
Q8:
The following data represents the height of some students in a high school. Use the cumulative frequency graph to estimate the median.
| Height (cm) | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frequency | 4 | 22 | 56 | 32 | 5 |
- A165 cm
- B163 cm
- C160 cm
- D146 cm
- E155 cm
Q9:
Liam took a sample of 100 balls from box A. He weighed each ball and recorded its weight. He used the information to draw the cumulative frequency graph shown on the grid. Use the cumulative frequency graph to find an estimate for the median weight of the balls.
- A50 grams
- B80 grams
- C104 grams
- D120 grams
- E90 grams
Q10:
By drawing a cumulative frequency graph for the given data that shows the weights of different students, determine which of the following could be an estimate for the median weight from the graph?
| Weight, (kg) | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cumulative Frequency | 2 | 6 | 15 | 36 | 58 | 73 |
- A38 kg
- B35 kg
- C30 kg
- D39 kg
- E32 kg
Q11:
If a cumulative frequency diagram were drawn from the data given in the table, what would be the highest cumulative frequency?
| Time, (Minutes) | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frequency | 4 | 12 | 34 | 32 | 26 |
Q12:
From the following cumulative frequency graph that represents the masses of some balls that have different colors, find the median.
