Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the frequency of each bin
  • The histogram shows the frequency of the amount of sugar in mg for each bin.
  • The bins and their corresponding frequencies are:
    • 160-162 mg: 2
    • 162-164 mg: 4
    • 164-166 mg: 10
    • 166-168 mg: 14
    • 168-170 mg: 10
    • 170-172 mg: 4
    • 172-174 mg: 2
Step 2: Sum the frequencies
  • Add the frequencies of all the bins to find the total sample size.
    • 2 + 4 + 10 + 14 + 10 + 4 + 2 = 46

Final Answer

  • The sample size for this data set is \( n = 46 \).
