The runs scored by two teams $A$ and $B$ on the first $60$ balls in a cricket match are given below:
Number of balls Teams $A$ Teams $B$
$1-6$ $2$ $5$
$7-12$ $1$ $6$
$13-18$ $8$ $2$
$19-24$ $9$ $10$
$25-30$ $4$ $5$
$31-36$ $5$ $6$
$37-42$ $6$ $3$
$43-48$ $10$ $4$
$49-54$ $6$ $8$
$55-60$ $2$ $10$

Represent the data of both the teams on the same graph by frequency polygons.
[Hint : First make the class intervals continuous.]

(N/A) It can be observed that the class intervals of the given data are not continuous.
There is a gap of $1$ in between them. Therefore,$1/2 = 0.5$ has to be added to the upper class limits and $0.5$ has to be subtracted from the lower class limits.
Also,the class mark of each interval can be found by using the following formula:
Class mark $= \frac{\text{Upper class limit} + \text{Lower class limit}}{2}$
Continuous data with the class mark of each class interval can be represented as follows:
Number of balls Class mark Team $A$ Team $B$
$0.5-6.5$ $3.5$ $2$ $5$
$6.5-12.5$ $9.5$ $1$ $6$
$12.5-18.5$ $15.5$ $8$ $2$
$18.5-24.5$ $21.5$ $9$ $10$
$24.5-30.5$ $27.5$ $4$ $5$
$30.5-36.5$ $33.5$ $5$ $6$
$36.5-42.5$ $39.5$ $6$ $3$
$42.5-48.5$ $45.5$ $10$ $4$
$48.5-54.5$ $51.5$ $6$ $8$
$54.5-60.5$ $57.5$ $2$ $10$

By taking class marks on the $x$-axis and runs scored on the $y$-axis,a frequency polygon can be constructed as shown in the graph.
