                                                 Frequency Chart

The frequency of a particular data value can be defined as the number of times it occurred. It is often represented by ‘f’. The frequency chart can be constructed when the collected data is arranged in ascending order of magnitude along with their corresponding frequencies.

Creating a frequency chart or table to represent data makes it easier to understand. Interpreting data is basically working out the provided information. The title of the table shows what this table is about and the headings show that what data is placed in each column.

While creating a frequency table, tally marks are used for counting things. These are small vertical line and each line represents one unit. The fifth tally mark is drawn across the first four.

There are many different ways of showing the information from a frequency table including bar chart, pie chart, histograms, pictograms, line graphs etc.

When the set of data values gets bigger then it becomes difficult to set up the frequency chart. In such cases, there will be too many rows for each and every data values. To avoid this situation, we group the data into class intervals so that we can interpret, organize and analyze the data in a convenient way.

An average frequency table should have between five and ten rows.
