The cumulative frequency diagram should be a smooth curve or a series of joined points plotted at the upper bound of each class interval. The points to plot are (5, 8), (10, 31), (15, 71), (20, 90), and (25, 100). The graph should start at (0,0).
A cumulative frequency diagram plots the cumulative frequency against the upper class boundary for each group. The graph should always start at the lowest boundary with a cumulative frequency of zero.
The points to be plotted are:
- (0, 0) - The starting point
- (5, 8)
- (10, 31)
- (15, 71)
- (20, 90)
- (25, 100)
After plotting these points accurately on the grid, they should be joined with a smooth, S-shaped curve (ogive) or with straight line segments.
