Bot, please answer this % score 11 - 20 21 - 30 31 - 40 41 - 50 51 - 60 61 - 70 71 - 80 81- 90

No of pupils 60 190 300 400 480 320 170 80
a) Prepare a cumulative frequency table and draw a cumulative frequency curve for the
distribution
b) Use your curve to estimate the
i. number of students that failed if the cut off mark is 55%

a) Cumulative Frequency Table:

b) Estimate:

From the cumulative frequency curve, we can estimate that about 1,010 students scored less than or equal to 55%. Therefore, the estimated number of students that failed if the cut off mark is 55% is 1,010.
