Handling Data In this investigation I am going to be Data Handling and do a comparison between height and weight. I will use a random selection of students from Mayfield School with 15 girls and 15 boys. The first thing I will do is choose the students and to do this I will use a calculator and as there is 1183 students I will use the sum: 1183 x RANDOM = STUDENT NUMBER Here are the students: F 1.52 45 F 1.57 52 F 1.52 45 F 1.79 43 F 1.63 38 F 1.50 52 F 1.57 38 F 1.48 47 F 1.45 81 F 1.47 44 F 1.58 48 F 1.65 48 F 1.62 40 F 1.73 42 F 1.75 40 M 1.80 62 M 1.74 50 M 1.60 55 M 1.48 26 M 1.55 38 M 1.67 52 M 1.97 84 M 1.62 50 M 1.63 40 M 1.55 38 M 1.72 90 M 1.63 40 M 1.62 63 M 1.85 62 M 1.30 35 Now I will produce a tally chart to represent my data: Height Tally Frequency 1.3 - 1.4 I 1 1.41 - 1.5 IIII 5 1.51 - 1.6 IIII III 8 1.61 - 1.7 IIII III 8 1.71 - 1.8 IIII I 6 1.81 - 1.9 I 1 1.91 - 2.0 I 1 There are very few people in the sample who are smaller than 1.41 metres and taller than 1.8 metres.
