The document discusses cumulative frequency distributions and how to convert them to simple frequency distributions. It provides examples of converting cumulative frequency tables with class intervals of varying sizes to simple frequency tables by taking the differences between cumulative frequency counts. This allows one to find the simple frequency for each class interval.
3. Cumulative Frequency
Cumulative frequency distribution has a running total of the values.
It is constructed by adding the frequency of the first class interval to the
frequency of the second class interval, and so on…

How to Convert cf into f
Find the differences b/w x values
Find the lower limit
20-5 = 15
25-5 = 20
30-5 = 25
35-5 = 30
40-5 = 35
45-5 = 40
Here difference is 5
Now find the lower limit by deducting
difference form upper limit
