Here is a sample distribution of hourly earnings in Paul's Cookie Factory: Hourly Earning $6 up to $9 $9 up to $12 $12 up to $15
Frequency 16 42 10
The limits of the class with the smallest frequency are:
A) $6.00 and $9.00.
B) $12.00 and up to $14.00.
C) $11.75 and $14.25.
D) $12.00 and up to $15.00.

The correct answer is:

$12.00 and up to $15.00 (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us arrange the data properly in a tabular format.

Hourly Earnings($)         6 - 9          9 - 12     12 - 15

Frequency                          16              42          10

The frequency of a distribution is the number of times that distribution occurs in a particular group of data or intervals.

From the frequency table above the following observations can be made:

Highest frequency = 42 (hourly earnings of $9 - $12)

smallest frequency = 10 ( hourly earnings of $12 - $15)

This means that among a total of 68 workers (16 + 42 + 10), the people earning $12 - $15 form the smallest group (only 10 people), while 42 workers earn $9 - $12, forming the largest majority
