In frequency polygon, we assume the frequencies to be concentrated at the mid-points of the class intervals, It points out merely the graphical relationship between mi -points and frequencies and thus is unable to show the distribution of frequencies within each class interval, But the histogram gives a very clear as well as accurate picture of the relative Proportions of frequency from interval to interval.

Then we will use the cumulative frequencies given next to the class intervals. In the case of a simple frequency distribution table like 2.1, the cumulative frequencies are first determined and written at the proper place against the respective class intervals. Now, for plottin; on the x-axis an y-axis of the graph paper. we reference to the range of data to graph paper to be used.
