When constructing grouped frequency distributions, the different categories (intervals) should:

When constructing grouped frequency distributions, the categories should contain cases that are similar in relation to the variable being described. This means that the intervals should be based on the range of values in the data set and should group together similar values. There is no specific limit to the number of values in each category, and the number of categories should depend on the range and distribution of the data. Therefore, options A, B, and D are not correct.
