1. Conduct a survey regarding the yearly tuition fee of the grade 11 students in Kingfisher
School of Business and Finance (HUMSS, ABM, and STEM)
Upon conducting a survey to the samples of each strand (HUMSS, ABM, and STEM)
from the population of the Grade 11 Kingfisher School of Business and Finance, I have collected
a total of 15 varieties of data regarding their annual tuition fees.
I have conducted the survey through an open-ended question type of survey, though it
was informal. The question was “Puwede ko ba matanong kung magkano yung yearly tuition fee
mo dito sa KF?” which translates to “May I ask how much is your yearly tuition fee in
Kingfisher?”
Here is a table of the data gathered from each strand:

STRAND ANNUAL TUITION FEE

HUMSS P15,000 P36,600 P15,000 P55,000 P54,000

ABM P18,200 P11,250 P18,200 P2,000 P18,200

STEM P3,750 P7,000 P32,800 P13,000 P18,800

 2. Organize a frequency distribution table for the gathered data; and
With the data gathered from the table above, we can use this to organize a frequency
distribution table. Before we start, let us define what frequency distribution in terms of Statistics
is. According to Britannica, it is a graph or data set organized to show the frequency of
occurrence of each possible outcome of a repeatable event observed many times.
In a frequency distribution table, we will encounter a lot of terminologies relating to it.
As we go through the process, each terms will be introduced to us. Though, let me introduce to
you a few of the terms right now in bullet form.
 Frequency Distribution Table
- a way to organize data so that it makes the data more meaningful

 Class Frequency
- the number of observation in each class

 Class Mark
- the average of the upper limit and the lower limit of a class in a frequency distribution

 Relative Class Frequency

- the proportion of the data that falls in that class

Now let us start in constructing and organizing the table through these steps:
STEP 1. Decide how many classes you wish.
To start, let us show that ‘n’ is the total number of data. Then we use the 2k ≥ nrule to
determine the number of classes needed in this table.
Now, we solve with the following given:
The value of ‘n’ will be 15 since it is the total number of gathered data. Then we use the rule:
k
2 ≥n
We substitute the value of n.
k
2 ≥15
To get k, we must find an exponent suitable for 2 for it to equate or be more than 15.
1
2 =2
2
2 =4
3
2 =8
4
2 =16
Upon observation, we can see that24 is 16, which is greater than 15. We therefore use 4 as the
value of ‘k.’
4
2 ≥ 15
16 ≥ 15
Therefore, the number of classes will be 4.
k =4 .
Then we proceed to the second step which is:
STEP 2. Determine the class interval or width.
To give an insight, class interval refers to the numerical width of any class in a particular
distribution.
To determine the class interval, we will use the formula:
( HP−LP)
k
Wherein,
HP – highest price
LP – lowest price
k – number of classes
Then, we substitute and solve basing on the data from below.
STRAND ANNUAL TUITION FEE

HUMSS P15,000 P36,600 P15,000 P55,000 P54,000

ABM P18,200 P11,250 P18,200 P2,000 P18,200

STEM P3,750 P7,000 P32,800 P13,000 P18,800

(55,000−2,000) 53,000
= =13,250
4 4
HP = 55,000
LP = 2,000
k=4
From the solving from above, we have determined that the class interval is 13,250.
Now we proceed to the third step.

STEP 3. Set the individual class limits.

Before we start, let us define class limits. It is said to represent the smallest and largest
data values that can belong to each class.
In this step, we will start to construct the table with the help of adding the class interval
to the lowest value in the table, and accumulate it until reaching the number of classes of 4.
Though, we have to round up the class interval in a way that it will be divisible by a 100.
Therefore, the class interval of 13,250 will become 13,300.
Now we start for us to be able to find the lower limits and upper limits of the table.
2 , 000+13,300=15,300
15,300+13,300=28,600
28,600+13,300=41,900
41,900 +13,300=55,200
Now, we put it in the table.
Class Interval

2,000 up to 15,300
15,300 up to 28,600
28,600 up to 41,900

41,900 up to 55,200

This will be the basis of the tallying of frequency regarding the data.
Then we proceed to the next step.

STEP 4. Tally the raw data.

After finding the lower and upper limits, we will now find the frequency of each by tallying.
15,000 36,600 15,000 55,000 54,000

18,200 11,250 18,200 2,000 18,200

3,750 7,000 32,800 13,000 18,800

The yellow ones will be tallied in the 2,000 up to 15,300; the green ones will be tallied
in the 15,300 up to 28,600; the pink ones will be tallied in the 28,600 up to 41,900; and the
gray ones will be tallied in the 41,900 up to 55,200. Below is the table of the tally:
Class Interval Tally

2,000 up to 15,300

15,300 up to 28,600

28,600 up to 41,900

41,900 up to 55,200

Here is the summarized table:

Class Interval Frequency

2,000 up to 15,300 7

15,300 up to 28,600 4

28,600 up to 41,900 2

41,900 up to 55,200 2

With the table, we can now proceed to fixing and inputting the data in the table.
STEP 5. Complete the table with the following requirements: relative frequency, cumulative
frequency, cumulative relative frequency or percentage of cumulative relative frequency, and
class mark.
i. Relative Frequency
To define relative frequency, it is the ratio (fraction or proportion) of the number of times
a value of the data occurs in the set of all outcomes to the total number of outcomes. The formula
to find relative frequency will be:
class frequency
relative frequency=
total number of observation
Now we substitute to find the RF of each class,

1) relative frequency= =0.4666∨0.47

2) relative frequency= =0.2666∨0.27
15

3) relative frequency= =0.1333∨0.13

4) relative frequency= =0.1333∨0.13

Class Interval Frequency Relative Frequency

2,000 up to 15,300 7 0.47

15,300 up to 28,600 4 0.27

28,600 up to 41,900 2 0.13

41,900 up to 55,200 2 0.13

TOTAL 15 1

ii. Cumulative Frequency

After finding for the relative frequencies, we will also solve for the cumulative
frequency. According to Statistics How To, it “is the sum of the class and all classes below it in a
frequency distribution. All that means is you’re adding up a value and all of the values that came
before it.”
In finding the cumulative frequency, we just have to add the all the previous frequencies
to the frequency for the current row.
FORMULA:
cumulative frequency=∑ of previous frequencies+ current class frequency
 Cumulative
Class Interval Frequency Relative Frequency
Frequency
2,000 up to 15,300 7 0.47 7

15,300 up to 28,600 4 0.27 7+ 4=11

28,600 up to 41,900 2 0.13 11+2=13

41,900 up to 55,200 2 0.13 13+2=15

TOTAL 15 1

iii. Cumulative Relative Frequency

Now we will find for the cumulative relative frequency. To define cumulative relative
frequency, “it is the accumulation of the previous relative frequencies. To find the cumulative
relative frequencies, add all the previous relative frequencies to the relative frequency for the
current row, as shown in the table below.”
FORMULA:
cumulative relative frequency
¿ ∑ of previousrelative frequencies +current class relative frequency

Frequenc Relative Cumulative Cumulative Relative

Class Interval
y Frequency Frequency Frequency
2,000 up to 15,300 7 0.47 7 0.47

15,300 up to 28,600 4 0.27 11 0.47+ 0.27=0.74

28,600 up to 41,900 2 0.13 13 0.74 +0.13=0.87

41,900 up to 55,200 2 0.13 15 0.87+ 0.13=1

TOTAL 15 1

iv. Percentage of Cumulative Relative Frequency

The percentage of cumulative relative frequency has the same process with finding the
cumulative relative frequency. Though, the difference between the two is that in the percentage
of cumulative frequency, the cumulative relative frequency will be in percentage form. This is
not really necessary to add as another column in the table thus you can use either of the both.
To find the percentage, just multiply it to 100.

Frequenc Relative Cumulative % of Cumulative Relative

Class Interval
y Frequency Frequency Frequency
2,000 up to 15,300 7 0.47 7 0.47 ( 100 )=47 %

15,300 up to 28,600 4 0.27 11 ( 0.47+ 0.27 ) 100=74 %

28,600 up to 41,900 2 0.13 13 (0.74 +0.13 ¿ 100=87 %
41,900 up to 55,200 2 0.13 15 ( 0.87+ 0.13 ) 100=100%
TOTAL 15 1
v. Class Mark
 Lastly, we will determine the class mark. To give a little insight, it is the average of the
upper limit and the lower limit of a class in a frequency distribution. In other words, the class
mark is the mid-value of the given class interval, according to Cue Math. This is also just an
additional to the table, you can either include it or not. To find the class mark of each class
interval, we will use the formula:
(upper limit +lower limit )
class mark =
2

15,300+ 2,000 17,300

1) class mark = = =8,650
2 2

28,600+ 15,300 43,900

2) class mark = = =21,950

4) class mark = = =48,550

41,900 up to 55,200 2 0.13 15 100% 48,550

TOTAL 15 1

After following these steps, we are able to organize a frequency distribution table with the
gathered data. Here is the table below:
Cumulative
Class Interval Relative Cumulative
Tally Frequency Relative
(Annual Tuition Fee) Frequency Frequency

2,000 up to 15,300 7 0.47 7 .47

41,900 up to 55,200 2 0.13 15 1

TOTAL 15 1

Answer the following questions:

 1. Provide a short description or explanation about the distribution of the yearly tuition fee
of the grade 11 students based on the frequency distribution table. What is the largest
tuition fee? The smallest?
Through the help of a histogram, a display that shows the frequency of data values on a graph,
we can visualize the data gathered and organized in the frequency distribution table.

Made in Microsoft Excel

With the organized data in the frequency table, we can observe from the data gathered
that the most number of tuition fee being paid annually ranges from P2, 000 up to 15, 300;
having a frequency of 7. Next to the line is the range of P15, 300 up to P28, 600 with a frequency
count of 4. Lastly, both P28, 600 up to P41, 900 and P41, 900 up to P55, 200 has a count of 2;
being the lowest among the rest. This observation shows that students who pay annual tuition
fees in the range of P2, 000 up to P15, 300 was most frequent, indicating that most of the
students from the data gathered pays a low amount of annual tuition fee.
We can see from their class width of 13,250 shows the large gap existing between the
ranging tuition fees of the grade 11 students of Kingfisher School of Business and Finance. In
addition regarding the data gathered, the largest tuition was P55, 000 while the smallest tuition
fee was P2, 000.

2. What is the typical yearly tuition fee of the grade 11 students?

To answer this question, let me introduce the ‘Measures of Central Tendency’ or
sometimes called measures of central location. According to Laerd Statistics, it is a single value
that attempts to describe a set of data by identifying the central position within that set of data.
With this, we will be able to determine the typical yearly tuition fee of the grade 11 students by
solving for its mean, median, and mode.

ABM P18,200 P11,250 P18,200 P2,000 P18,200

STEM P3,750 P7,000 P32,800 P13,000 P18,800

i. Mean
 Basing on the table above of the gathered data, let us first find the mean. To define the
mean, it is the sum of the value of each observation in a dataset divided by the number of
observations according to Australian Bureau of Statistics.
Since we are solving for ungrouped data, the formula for mean will be:

X=
∑X
n
Where:
X =represents the mean
n=number of observations

∑ X=∑ of all the values

Now, let us substitute and solve.

15,000+ 36,600+15,000+55,000+54,000+18,200+ ¿11,250 +18,200+2,000+18,200+ 3,750+7,000+

X =21 ,253.33∨21 , 253
ii. Median
Next is the median. According to Laerd Statistics, it is the middle score for a set of data
that has been arranged in order of magnitude. To find for the median, we need to rearrange the
data in ascending form and find for the middle score.

15,000 36,600 15,000 55,000 54,000

18,200 11,250 18,200 2,000 18,200

18,200

18,200

18,800

32,800

36,600

54,000

55,000

As we can see from the list above, the median of this data will be 18,200.

iii. Mode
Last but not the least is the mode, it is said to be the most frequent score in our data set. To find
for the mode, let us see which is the most occurring among the values with the table below.
15,000 36,600 15,000 55,000 54,000

18,200 11,250 18,200 2,000 18,200

3,750 7,000 32, 800 13,000 18,800

We can see from the table above that the most occurring value in the data set is 18, 200, making
it the mode.
With all of these, we can now determine what amount is the typical yearly tuition fee of
the grade 11 students in Kingfisher School of Business and Finance of the A.Y. 2021-2022.
Though the results may be interpreted in many various ways, I would like to share my own
observations regarding the results of the central tendency. Based on the results from above
wherein: mean =21 , 253.33; median: 18,200; and mode: 18,200. This goes to show that the
typical tuition fee of the grade 11 students ranges from P15, 300 up to P28, 600.
To be more specific, we can say from the results of the median and mode that the typical
amount of annual tuition fee in this gathered data will be P18, 200.
