In alphabetical order, the six most common last names in the United States in 2018 were Brown, Garcia, Johnson, Jones, Smith, and Williams (United States Census Bureau website). Assume that a sample of 50 individuals with one of these last names provided the following data: $\begin{array}{lllll}\text { Brown } & \text { Williams } & \text { Williams } & \text { Williams } & \text { Brown } \\ \text { Smith } & \text { Jones } & \text { Smith } & \text { Johnson } & \text { Smith } \\ \text { Garcia } & \text { Smith } & \text { Brown } & \text { Williams } & \text { Johnson } \\ \text { Johnson } & \text { Smith } & \text { Smith } & \text { Johnson } & \text { Brown } \\ \text { Williams } & \text { Garcia } & \text { Johnson } & \text { Williams } & \text { Johnson } \\ \text { Williams } & \text { Johnson } & \text { Jones } & \text { Smith } & \text { Brown } \\ \text { Johnson } & \text { Smith } & \text { Smith } & \text { Brown } & \text { Jones } \\ \text { Jones } & \text { Jones } & \text { Smith } & \text { Smith } & \text { Garcia } \\ \text { Garcia } & \text { Jones } & \text { Williams } & \text { Garcia } & \text { Smith } \\ \text { Jones } & \text { Johnson } & \text { Brown } & \text { Johnson } & \text { Garcia }\end{array}$ Summarize the data by constructing the following: a.
