(i) The highest rectangle corresponds to the highest number of literate females, which is in the interval 15−20 years.

(ii) The class intervals are 10−15, 15−20, 20−25, 30−35, 35−40. Hence, the class width is 5.

(iii) The lowest rectangle corresponds to the lowest frequency, which is 320.

(iv) The class mark is the mid-point of the class interval.

i.e., Class mark = (upper limit + lower limit) / 2

Hence, the class mark of each class is as follows:

Class Interval Class Marks
10-15 12.5
15-20 17.5
20-25 22.5
25-30 27.5
30-35 32.5
35-40 37.5

(v) The lowest rectangle corresponds to the least number of literate females, which is in the interval 10−15 years.
