1. Answer THE WHOLE of this question on a sheet of graph paper.

(a) The time taken by 140 children to run 200 metres was recorded.
(b) The results are summarised in the table below.

Time ( 𝑡 22 ≤ 𝑡 24 ≤ 𝑡 26 ≤ 𝑡 31 ≤ 𝑡 36 ≤ 𝑡
seconds) < 24 < 26 < 31 < 36 < 46
Number of 12 18 42 28 40
bulbs

(i)Using a scale of I cm to represent 2 seconds, draw a horizontal axis for time from 22 seconds
In 46 seconds. Using a scale of I cm to represent I unit, draw a verlical axis for frequency density
from 0 to 9 units.
On your axes. draw a histogram to represent the information in the table. [3]

(ii)Estimate the number of children who took less that, 25 seconds to run 200 metres. [1]

(iii)One child was chosen at random. Calculate the probability that the time taken by this child
was less than 36 seconds. Express your answer as a fraction in its lowest terms. [1]

(iv) Out of the 30 children who took less than 26 seconds, two were chosen at random.
Calculate the probability that they both took less than 24 seconds. [2]

(b) Some boys were put into five groups, A, B, C, D and E, based on the times they took to rut’
100 metres.
The pie chart shows the proportion of boys in each group.

Group 𝐴 contains of the boys.

Group 𝐵 contains 35% of the boys.
Group 𝐶 is represented by a sector with
an angle of 42 .
Group 𝐷 contains 9 boys.
