14

6

16

12

Answer 1

The number of scores that are less than 72 is 12.

Solution:

In the given histogram represents the scores of golfers.

x-axis represents the scores and y-axis represents the number of scores.

Number of scores between 66 - 67 = 4

Number of scores between 68 - 69 = 2

Number of scores between 70 - 71 = 6

Number of scores between 72 - 73 = 2

Number of scores between 74 - 75 = 2

To determine the number of scores that are less than 72.

Number of scores less than 72 = 4 + 2 + 6

= 12

Hence the number of scores that are less than 72 is 12.
