Thirty children were asked about the number of hours they watched $TV$ programmes in the previous week. The results were found as follows:
$\begin{array}{rrrrrrrrrr}1 & 6 & 2 & 3 & 5 & 12 & 5 & 8 & 4 & 8 \\ 10 & 3 & 4 & 12 & 2 & 8 & 15 & 1 & 17 & 6 \\ 3 & 2 & 8 & 5 & 9 & 6 & 8 & 7 & 14 & 12\end{array}$
$(i)$ Make a grouped frequency distribution table for this data,taking class width $5$ and one of the class intervals as $5-10$.
$(ii)$ How many children watched television for $15$ or more hours a week?

(N/A) $(i)$ The class intervals with a width of $5$ are $0-5, 5-10, 10-15, 15-20$.
The grouped frequency distribution table is as follows:
Hours Number of children
$0-5$ $10$
$5-10$ $13$
$10-15$ $5$
$15-20$ $2$
Total $30$

$(ii)$ The number of children who watched $TV$ for $15$ or more hours a week corresponds to the class interval $15-20$. From the table,this value is $2$.
