### Class Width, Lower Class Limits, and Upper Class Limits

Given the minimum and maximum data entries and the number of classes, determine the class width, lower class limits, and upper class limits.

#### Problem Parameters:
- Minimum = 7 
- Maximum = 70 
- Number of Classes = 6

#### Calculations:

1. **Class Width:**
   \[
   \text{Class Width Formula:} \quad \frac{\text{Maximum} - \text{Minimum}}{\text{Number of Classes}}
   \]
   \[
   \text{Class Width} = \frac{70 - 7}{6}
   \]
   \[
   \text{Class Width} = \frac{63}{6}
   \]
   \[
   \text{Class Width} = 10.5
   \]
   \[
   \text{Class Width Rounded Up} = 11
   \]

2. **Choosing Correct Lower Class Limits:**
   Choose from the options below:

   A. 18, 28, 40, 51, 62, 72
   
   B. 7, 18, 29, 40, 51, 62
   
   C. 7, 17, 27, 39, 50, 62
   
   D. 17, 28, 40, 50, 61, 72
   
3. **Choosing the Correct Upper Class Limits:**
   Choose from the options below:

   A. 18, 29, 39, 50, 62, 72
   
   B. 18, 29, 40, 51, 62, 72
   
   C. 17, 28, 40, 51, 61, 72
   
   D. 17, 28, 39, 50, 61, 72

#### Graphical Explanation:
There are no graphs or diagrams included in this image. The problem is purely textual.

Students are required to use the given rules and conditions to correctly identify the class width, establish lower class limits, and upper class limits, then choose the appropriate options provided.
