Demystifying - Drawing a histogram

Drills

Frequency densities for every class, with bar areas carrying the frequencies.

Author note — to cover (Higher)

Higher only. Draw histograms for grouped continuous data including unequal class widths: calculate every frequency density, choose a sensible density axis, draw touching bars whose areas carry the frequencies. Include one table needing care with class boundaries. Equal-width frequency diagrams for both tiers sit on the earlier page; interpretation is the sibling page. (S3)
