You want 10 classes with a \"nice\" class width. A \"nice\" class width would be a nice to work with multiple of 5. (5, 10, 20, 25, 50, ect.) Your classes should be labeled using interval notation. Since the data appears to be discrete, use a closed-interval to label each class. Each class should contain its lower class limit, and the lower class limits should all be multiples of the class width.\r<BR>\n" );
