Question - 1 : - Define cumulative frequency distribution.

Answer - 1 : - Cumulative frequency : In a discrete frequency distribution, the cumulative frequency of a particular value of the variable is the total of all the frequencies of the values of the variable which are less than or equal to the particular value.

Question - 2 : - Explain the difference between a frequency distribution and a cumulative frequency distribution.

Answer - 2 : -

The number of times an observation occurs in the given data, is called frequency of the
observation while a cumulative frequency of a particular value of the variable is the total of all the frequencies of the values of the variable which are less than or equal to the particular value.
