$\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
{10}&{20}&{36}&{92}&{95}&{40}&{50}&{56}&{60}&{70} \\
{92}&{88}&{80}&{70}&{72}&{70}&{36}&{40}&{36}&{40} \\

(N/A) Recall that the number of students who have obtained a certain number of marks is called the frequency of those marks. For instance,$4$ students got $70$ marks. So the frequency of $70$ marks is $4$. To make the data more easily understandable,we write it in a table,as given below:
Marks Number of students (i.e.,the frequency)
$10$ $1$
$20$ $1$
$36$ $3$
$40$ $4$
$50$ $3$
$56$ $2$
$60$ $4$
$70$ $4$
$72$ $1$
$80$ $1$
$88$ $2$
$92$ $3$
$95$ $1$
Total $30$

This table is called an ungrouped frequency distribution table,or simply a frequency distribution table. Note that you can also use tally marks in preparing these tables.
