A
21.5
B
30.5
C
20.5
D
10.5
Verified Correct Answer: B.
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
The modal class is the class interval with the highest frequency.
From the table:
Frequency of 1-10: 2
11 - 20: 7
21 - 30: 10 (highest)
31 - 40: 3
41 - 50: 1
Therefore, the modal class is 21-30.
The upper-class boundary of a class interval is the upper limit, considering the continuous nature of grouped data (typically 0.5 above the stated upper limit if classes are assumed continuous).
For the class 21 - 30, the upper-class boundary is 30.5.
