Hi!

i'm assuming I need to add some function
to enable the frequency thing?

The frequencies are calculated and are output in the histogram.

Assume your data is in the range A1:B5

Bins are in the range C1:C10

Goto ToolsData Analysis
Select Histogram
Fill in the user form
OK

Don't know what is meant by a frequency histogram and a relative frequency
histogram.

Hi,

I'd like to start by thanking everyone in advance for helping students
like me.

I have a problem I'm working on for class and it goes something like
this:

"The salaries (in hundreds of dollars) of a sample of 40 government
employees are as follows:

208 160 175 ...
265
173
..

Construct both a frequency histogram (vanilla) and a relative frequency
histogram (chocolate). Hint: use six bins."

Now I've enabled the "Data Analysis" feature, but i'm assuming I need
to add some function to enable the frequency thing?

I apologize for being so lost - I'm trying!

Thanks people!
