To draw the Ogive or cumulative frequency curve, we need to find out the cumulative frequency.
Class interval 0−10 10−20 20−30 30−40 40−50
Frequency 6 21 16 32 10
Cumulative frequency 6 27 43 75 85
Let us take the scale on X-axis as 1 cm=10 and Y-axis as 1 cm=10 and mark the cumulative frequency against the upper limit of each class interval. Joining these points by a smooth curve, we get ogive or cumulative frequency curve. The curve looks like this.
