BRIEF INTRODUCTION

Statistical data, simply put, refers to the results


obtained in the forms of numbers from any
research or study performed with statistical tools
or empirical methods.
This numerical data is then represented in visual
forms which is called graphical representation of
data.
GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION OF DATA
Definition:
Graphical Representation of Data simply refers to the various methods
that are used to visually showcase numerical or statistical data
obtained from various studies, in an eye-catching and appealing way.
Furthermore, graphical representation of data also
makes observation and analysis of any data much easier and concise
by presenting all the data in the form of different graphs and charts.
Summary Point :
 Visual representation of Numerical or Statistical data.
 Eye-catching, Attractive, and Appealing to viewers.
 Easier to Observe and Analyse.
 Represents huge amount of numeric data in a concise way.
PRINCIPLE OF GRAPHICAL
REPRESENTATION OF DATA

PRINCIPLES OF GRAPHICAL REPRESENTION OF
DATA
Principles of algebraic expression applies for most of the graphical
representations that are represented nowadays. In this representation
there're two axis X and Y which are joined by O co-ordinate.

Some of the commonly used graphical representation are as follows :

 Cumulative frequency graph


 The histogram
 The bar diagram
 Pie chart
 Line graph
 Frequency graph
 Area graph
PRINCIPLES OF GRAPHICAL REPRESENTION OF
DATA
Some others principles that we should follow while using
graphical representation are:

 Using appropriate title for an graphical representation helps to


understand and indicate its subject more thoroughly.

 To mention the measuring unit to avoid confusion and


maintain homogeneity in the graph

 Use index and scales to represent the graph

 Putting data sources help the readers to find the information


about the resources related to the graph

 Keeping it neat and simple helps the user to understand the


graph better and easier way
APPLICATION OF GRAPHICAL

APPLICATION OF GRAPHICAL REPRESENTION OF
DATA
The main agenda of presenting scientific data into graphs is to provide
information efficiently to utilize the power of visual display while avoiding
confusion.

This is important in communicating our findings to others and our understanding and
analysis of the data.
 It is used in understanding and identifying trends and patterns in the ever-increasing
data flow.
 Graphical representation helps in quick analysis of large quantities and can support
making predictions and informed decisions.
 It is used in statistical analysis to determine the mean, median and mode for different
data sets.
 Basically graphical representation enables the quick analysis of large amounts of data
at one time.
ADVANTAGES AND
DISADVANTAGES OF GRAPHICAL
REPRESENTATION OF DATA

By
NAME : Priya Majee
CODE : BWU/PSY/22/032
SOME ADVANTAGES OF GRAPHICAL REPRESENTION
OF DATA
It simplifies data
It makes a representation more attractive and catchy
Helps facilitating comparisons between different
subject/ object
With trends it also helps in forecasting the data
It helps in learning the data more efficiently
 Less literate or anyone who doesn’t have knowledge
about the the data can still understand them through
graph
SOME DISADVANTAGES OF GRAPHICAL
REPRESENTION OF DATA
It can’t provide descriptive version of data .
It has low precision.
Sometimes it rejects or limits further analysis
of the data.
It has good possibility of manipulation and
misuse.
Sometimes it can’t provide meaningful data
required for the information required.
CUMULATIVE FREQUENCY

CUMULATIVE FREQUENCY GRAPH

WHAT IS CUMULATIVE FREQUENCY ?

Cumulative frequency is the grouped data of total frequencies in a frequency


distribution until a certain defined class interval. It is the running total of all the
frequencies.

CUMULATIVE FREQUENCY GRAPH :


A curve that represents the cumulative frequency distribution of grouped data
on a graph is called a Cumulative Frequency Graph or an ogive.
Representing cumulative frequency data on a graph is the most efficient way to
understand the data and derive results.

There are two types of Cumulative Frequency Graph :


 Less Than Type
 More Than Type
Let’s see some examples
Less than type

MARKS NO. OF STUDENTS UPPER LIMIT CUMULATIVE FREQUENCY

(f) (X) (Y)


0-10 4 Less than10 4
10-20 16 Less than 20 20
20-30 24 Less than 30 44
30-40 46 Less than 40 90
40-50 10 Less than 50 100

(X,Y)
(10,4) Median Class = 100/2
(20,20) = 50
(30,44) Median = 31
(40,90)
(50,100)
More than type

MARKS NO. OF STUDENTS LOWER LIMIT CUMULATIVE FREQUENCY

(f) (X) (Y)

0-10 4 More than 0 100


10-20 16 More than 10 100-4=96
20-30 24 More than 20 96-16=80
30-40 46 More than 30 80-24=56
40-50 10 More than 40 56-46=10

(X,Y)
(0,100) Median Class = 100/2
(10,96) = 50
(20,80) Median = 31
(30,56)
(40,10)
