Explanation:

Step1: Identify the frequencies

The frequencies for each bar are \(2\) (for \(200 - 202\)), \(2\) (for \(202 - 204\)), \(7\) (for \(204 - 206\)), \(14\) (for \(206 - 208\)), \(9\) (for \(208 - 210\)), \(5\) (for \(210 - 212\)), \(1\) (for \(212 - 214\)).

Step2: Sum the frequencies

$$n=2 + 2+7 + 14+9 + 5+1$$

$$n=(2 + 2)+7+(14+9)+(5 + 1)$$

$$n = 4+7+23+6$$

$$n=40$$

Answer:

\(40\)
