Identify whether the data is round number, 1 decimal place or 2 demical place.
-round number
Calculate solution using the correct formula. (K, range, C).
A) Since K = 1 + 3.3 log (70)
K = 1 + 3.3 (1.845)
K = 1 + 6.0888
K = 7.0888
K=7
B) Data range = largest value is 187 and the smallest value is 140, the data range is
187 – 140 = 47.

C) Class width, C = Range/k
C = 47/7
C = 6.714
C = 6.7
Create frequency distribution table with 6 columns.
I. Column class interval – start with smallest value and last class cover the
largest value.
II. Tally and frequency are same value.
III. Class Boundaries
-lower boundaries minus (RN 0.5, 1 DP 0.05, 2 DP 0.005)
-Upper boundaries plus (RN 0.5, 1 DP 0.05, 2 DP 0.005)
IV. Relative frequency – frequency / total frequency
V. Midpoint – (lower limit + upper limit) / 2

Conclusion (problem solving)
This study was responded by 70 students of Politeknik Seberang Perai. The highest average
height of Politeknik Seberang Perai students is 149.5cm – 159.5cm which is 33 students. The
lowest average height of Politeknik Seberang Perai students is 179.5cm – 189.5cm which is 1
student.
From this study, we can see that the most of PSP students didn’t reach the height that they
should. The main factor that influences a person’s height is their genetic or DNA. Genetic is
responsible for about 80% of person’s height. For instance, tall people tend to have children
who also grow up to be tall.
However, many other factors can influence height including nutrition or meals intake,
hormones, activity levels and originally stunted. People usually grow until they reach 18
years at age. Due to typical aging processes, people begin to lose height gradually as they get
older. Teenagers will experience a growth spurt during puberty.
After that, their bones will stop growing, and they will not get any taller. But, practicing good
posture and keeping the back and core muscles strong allows person to stand straighter and
appear.
