1. The problem asks us to estimate the number of children for whom $50 < m \leq 80$ minutes based on the histogram data.
2. The histogram shows frequency density for intervals of time $m$ in minutes. The frequency density multiplied by the width of the interval gives the frequency (number of children) in that interval.
3. We know from the problem that for $m \leq 20$, there are 10 children. The first bar covers $0$ to $20$ minutes with frequency density approximately $1$. The width of this interval is $20$ minutes.
4. Using the formula for frequency:
$$\text{frequency} = \text{frequency density} \times \text{width}$$
For the first bar:
$$10 = 1 \times 20$$
This confirms the frequency density scale is correct.
5. We want to find the number of children for $50 < m \leq 80$. This covers two intervals: $40$ to $60$ and $60$ to $80$.
6. From the histogram:
- For $40$ to $60$, frequency density is about $2$, width is $20$.
- For $60$ to $80$, frequency density is about $2.5$, width is $20$.
7. Calculate frequency for each interval:
$$\text{frequency}_{40-60} = 2 \times 20 = 40$$
$$\text{frequency}_{60-80} = 2.5 \times 20 = 50$$
8. But we only want $50 < m \leq 80$, so for the $40$ to $60$ interval, we only count from $50$ to $60$, which is half the interval width ($10$ minutes).
9. Calculate frequency for $50$ to $60$:
$$\text{frequency}_{50-60} = 2 \times 10 = 20$$
10. Add frequencies for $50$ to $60$ and $60$ to $80$:
$$20 + 50 = 70$$
11. Therefore, the estimate for the number of children for whom $50 < m \leq 80$ is $70$.
This method uses simple multiplication of frequency density by interval width and partial interval consideration for $50$ to $60$ minutes.
