Scenario-3:
Consider your class of 100 students. In the below table, we have scores of 99
students falling in their respective score intervals. YOU MUST ADD YOUR EXAM-
1 SCORE TO THIS FREQUENCIES TO MAKE IT TO COUNT AS 100 STUDENTS.

Note: If you have a score of decimals, say 101.4 on your exam-1, round below to 101.
If you got a score of 96.5, round it up to 97 and place yourself in the table of
frequencies below. i.e., Round below for scores with decimals less than 0.4 and round

/,
up for scores with decimals more than or equal to 0.5.

increase in count of frequency value of fourth class 76 100 to 27.
