### Sample of RCCC Women's Heights – Spring 2022

The table below represents the frequency distribution of the heights (in inches) of a sample of women from RCCC taken in Spring 2022.

| **Height (in inches)** | **Frequency** |
|------------------------|---------------|
| 61                     | 4             |
| 62                     | 8             |
| 63                     | 7             |
| 64                     | 7             |
| 65                     | 12            |
| 66                     | 3             |
| 67                     | 7             |
| 68                     | 2             |
| 69                     | 0             |
| 70                     | 1             |
| 71                     | 0             |
| 72                     | 1             |

#### Explanation of the Table
- **Height (in inches)**: This column lists different heights in inches.
- **Frequency**: This column indicates how many individuals have the corresponding height.

#### Key Observations:
- The height with the highest frequency is 65 inches with 12 women.
- Heights 69 inches and 71 inches have no individuals.
- Most frequent range of heights lies between 62 inches and 67 inches. 

This data is essential for understanding the distribution of women's heights within the sample population at RCCC for the specified period.
