Gathering and Organizing Data · Example 2

A teacher records the responses of the class (28 students) on the first question of a multiple choice quiz, with five possible responses (A, B, C, D, and E):
$$\begin{array}{cccccccccccccc}\text{A}& \text{A}& \text{C}& \text{A}& \text{B}& \text{B}& \text{A}& \text{E}& \text{A}& \text{C}& \text{A}& \text{A}& \text{A}& \text{C}\\ \text{E}& \text{A}& \text{B}& \text{A}& \text{A}& \text{C}& \text{A}& \text{B}& \text{E}& \text{E}& \text{A}& \text{A}& \text{C}& \text{C}\end{array}$$

Create a categorical frequency distribution that organizes the responses.
