Background of the analysis

Physics is one of the subject of the 3rd yr students in Regional Science high
school. Last month, the 3rd yr students had their 1st long test in the said subject. This
survey aims to collect the different data from the entire 3rd yr classes of their test scores in
physics.
We get the sample by solving first the sample size with a margin of error of
20.7%or 0.201[n=68/1+68(.201)]. After solving we obtained 24, so we will use random
sampling to choose the 24.It is done by assigning numbers in each student from 1-68,
then we wrote these numbers in a piece of paper, and finally picked the 24 students that
will be in the sample.
Objective of the analysis

This study aims to answer the following questions:

1. Does the majority of the sample that is chosen, has a passing rate?
2. Does the majority of the sample that is chosen got a failing grade?
3. Based from the sample, did the students study for this exam?

Conclusion
We therefore conclude that most of the students got scores between 25-27 which
is 19 followed by 28-30(16), 22-24(12) then 31-33(10), 19-21(7) and least students got
scores between 16-18 and 34-36 which is 2. We also conclude that
