1. Observe the highest and lowest value in data. Create a column with the title of the variable what we are using. Include the highest score at the apex of the column and include all values from the highest score to the lowest score.
2. The frequency distribution is finished by creating a tally column and the frequency value shown in tally column.
3. The total frequency for the distribution is recorded at the bottom of the frequency column.
