The frequencies are:

  • Age 13: 1010 students
  • Age 14: 2424 students
  • Age 15: 88 students
  • Age 16: 55 students
  • Age 17: 33 students

So the total number of students is:

10+24+8+5+310 + 24 + 8 + 5 + 3

Add step by step:

10+24=3410 + 24 = 34 34+8=4234 + 8 = 42 42+5=4742 + 5 = 47 47+3=5047 + 3 = 50

Therefore, the number of students in the club is:
