Display the following dataset in a histogram. Use five bins, beginning with 60 and going by intervals of 2.

70, 61, 60, 64, 70, 65, 65, 66, 60, 61, 68, 68, 67, 65, 64, 62

How many numbers in the dataset will be in the bin that goes from 62 to just under 64?

To identify how many numbers from the dataset fall into the bin that goes from 62 to just under 64, we first need to define our bins according to the specified parameters.

Starting from 60 and using intervals of 2, the five bins are:

  1. 60 to just under 62
  2. 62 to just under 64
  3. 64 to just under 66
  4. 66 to just under 68
  5. 68 to just under 70

Next, we check the dataset:

  • Numbers: 70, 61, 60, 64, 70, 65, 65, 66, 60, 61, 68, 68, 67, 65, 64, 62

Now, we count the numbers that fall into each bin:

  1. 60 to just under 62: 60, 60, 61, 61 = 4 numbers
  2. 62 to just under 64: 62 = 1 number
  3. 64 to just under 66: 64, 64, 65, 65, 65 = 5 numbers
  4. 66 to just under 68: 66, 67 = 2 numbers
  5. 68 to just under 70: 68, 68 = 2 numbers

Thus, for the bin that goes from 62 to just under 64, there is 1 number.

The correct response is: 1
