Notes 

The word statistics is used for two different meanings.
In the singular sense, it is used as a science or a subject which deals with the collection, classification, tabulation, representation and interpretation of the data.
In the plural sense, it is sometimes used for the numerical facts collected in the form of numbers.

important term on Data Handling

1. Data : Each number, collected for giving a required information, is called the data.

2. Bar Graph (Column Graph) : Bar graph is the simplest form of presenting a data. It consists of bars (usually vertical), all of same widths. The heights of these bars are drawn according to the number they represent.

3. Pie Graph : When the given data is represented by the sectors of a circle, the resulting diagram (graph) obtained is called a pie-graph or a pie-chart.

Question- 7.

The following data represents the weekly wages (in ₹) of 15 workers in a factory : 900, 850, 800, 850, 800, 750, 950, 900, 950, 800, 750, 900, 750, 800 and 850.
Prepare a frequency distribution table. Now find,
(i) how many workers are getting less than ₹850 per week?
(ii) how many workers are getting more than ₹800 per week?
Answer-7

The required frequency table will be as shown below:

Weekly wages in (₹) Tally-marks Frequency
750 ||| 3
800 |||| 4
850 ||| 3
900 ||| 3
950 || 2
Total no.of workers 15

(i) Workers getting less than ₹850 per week

No. of workers getting ₹750 = 3 workers

No. of workers getting ₹800 = 4 works

∴ Workers getting less than ₹ 850 = 4 + 3 = 7 workers

(ii) Workers are getting more than ₹800 per week

No. of workers getting ₹850 = 3

No. of workers getting ₹900 = 3

No. of workers getting ₹950 = 2

∴ Workers getting more than ₹800 = 3 + 3 + 2 = 8 workers
