You can put this solution on YOUR website! To make a frequency table, simply list all the values in one column and their respective counts (or frequencies) right next to each value.
Frequency Table:
| Value | Frequency | | 15 | 3 | | 16 | 2 | | 17 | 0 | | 18 | 3 | | 19 | 4 | | 20 | 3 | | 21 | 5 | | 22 | 2 | | 23 | 2 | | 24 | 1 | | 25 | 2 | | 26 | 1 | | 27 | 2 | | 28 | 1 | | 29 | 1 |
Note: The third row with 17 in the first column and 0 in the second represents the idea that there are zero occurrences of the value 17.
Now look to the fifth row: 19 in the first column and 4 in the second column tells us that there are 4 instances of the value 19.
You read the other rows in this way.
Also, as a check, adding up the frequencies in the second column should give us 32 (since there are 32 total values). Let's check this
3+2+0+3+4+3+5+2+2+1+2+1+2+1+1 = 32
So this partially verifies the answer.
