Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the number of people who are 20 years of age or older but less than 60 years of age, we need to add the frequencies of the age groups 20-24, 25-29, ..., 55-59.

20-24: 16
25-29: 20
30-34: 11
35-39: 6
40-44: 9
45-49: 4
50-54: 3
55-59: 0

Adding the frequencies for the above categories, we get 69. Therefore, the answer is A) 69.
