STATISTICS

There are 100 random samples were taken from the large
population. A particular numerical characteristics of
sampled items was measured. The results of the
measurements were as follows:
45 measurements were between 0.859 and 0.900
0.901 was observed once
0.902 was observed three times
0.903 was observed twice
0.904 was observed four times
The smallest value was 0.859 and the largest value was
0.958. The sum of all the 100 measurements was 91.170.
Except those noted, no measurement occurred more than
twice.
