Histogram
Distribution of Ratio of Omega 3 to Omega 6 in Oils
Ratio
Frequency
B) Frequency value more than 1 represents that the oils have higher omega 3 than omega 6.
It is evident from the above shown histogram that maximum frequency has been observed
in the bin of 0 to 1. Also, the sum of values that are falling in the range 1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to
4, 4 to 5 and 5 to 6 comes out to be 2+3+1+1=7. As a result, the shape of the histogram is
asymmetric or skewed.
Therefore, the distribution represents that very little proportion of the food oils has the ration
greater than 1 (omega 3> omega 6). Hence, it shows that foods belonging to these categories
have a positive impact on human health considering that omega 3 is healthier in comparison
to omega 6.
C) Ratios of the respective fish oils are summarised in the table below.
