Question

In constructing frequency distribution, number of classes depends upon​

Answer 1

Answer:

size of data

Explanation:

Answer 2

The number of classes depends on the size of data/ size of class in a frequency distribution.

• For statistical calculations, the groups or classes are split.
• For each class, the amount of repetitions or frequency is verified based on the individual class.
• However, the number of categories to be separated is solely determined by the amount of data collected.
• The aim of data condensation into relevant groupings will be undermined if there are too many classes.
• At the same time, there will be a loss of information if there are too few classes.
• In addition, all of the classes have been made continuous to limit the likelihood of specific data falling into a certain class being neglected.
• Hence, there should be an appropriate balance between available data and the number of classes for frequency distribution.
