Select category, count, and cumulative percent Range together as shown below.After sorting the values from largest to smallest, we calculate the cumulative percentage for each of the categories. It is the method of calculating the frequency distribution and will be calculated successively by adding the percent with other frequencies. The percent will be calculated using the formula =(C3/$C$13) *100, applying throughout the other cells. Calculate the percentage of each category and further compute the cumulative percent.Collect the Raw Data including the Category (cause of a problem) and their Count.
