Answer

(a) 6 classes. (b) Class 1: lower class limit = 0 upper class limit = 4,999 Class 2: lower class limit = 5,000 upper class limit = 9,999 Class 3: lower class limit = 10,000 upper class limit = 14,999 Class 4: lower class limit = 15,000 upper class limit = 19,999 Class 5: lower class limit = 20,000 upper class limit = 24,999 Class 6: lower class limit = 25,000 upper class limit = 29,999 (c) Class width = 5,000

Work Step by Step

(a) Just count the number of classes: 6 (b) For each class, the first number is the lower limit and the second number is the upper limit. (c) It is the difference between two consecutive lower limits: $5,000-0=10,000-5,000=15,000-10,000=20,000-15,000=25,000-20,000=5,000$
