A frequency distribution is just a chart that tells
how many times each number appears in the data list.

Just make two columns.  The first column just contains
each number that appears.  Only list each number one time 
in the left column, labeled "X".  Then in the second 
column, labeled "Frequency", write the number of times 
that number in the X-column appears in the list.  For 
instance, the number 1 appears 2 times in the list, so 
beside 1 in the X-column, write 2 in the frequency 
column.


X       Frequency
1           2 
2           1
3           1
6           1
7           1
8           1
9           3 
10          1
11          1 
12          1 
13          1
14          2
17          4
