$A$ teacher wanted to analyze the performance of two sections of students in a mathematics test of $100$ marks. Looking at their performances,she found that a few students got under $20$ marks and a few got $70$ marks or above. So she decided to group them into intervals of varying sizes as follows: $0-20, 20-30, ..., 60-70, 70-100$. Then she formed the following table:
Marks Number of students
$0-20$ $7$
$20-30$ $10$
$30-40$ $10$
$40-50$ $20$
$50-60$ $20$
$60-70$ $15$
$70$ and above $8$
Total $90$

$(i)$ Find the probability that a student obtained less than $20\%$ in the mathematics test.
$(ii)$ Find the probability that a student obtained marks $60$ or above.

On one page of a telephone directory,there were $200$ telephone numbers. The frequency distribution of their unit place digit (for example,in the number $25828573$,the unit place digit is $3$) is given in the table below:
Digit $0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9$
Frequency $22, 26, 22, 22, 20, 10, 14, 28, 16, 20$

Without looking at the page,a number is chosen at random. What is the probability that the digit in its unit place is $6$?

The distance (in $km$) of $40$ engineers from their residence to their place of work were found as follows.
$5$ $3$ $10$ $20$ $25$ $11$ $13$ $7$ $12$ $31$
$19$ $10$ $12$ $17$ $18$ $11$ $32$ $17$ $16$ $2$
$7$ $9$ $7$ $8$ $3$ $5$ $12$ $15$ $18$ $3$
$12$ $14$ $2$ $9$ $6$ $15$ $15$ $7$ $6$ $12$

What is the empirical probability that an engineer lives:
$(i)$ less than $7 \, km$ from her place of work?
$(ii)$ more than or equal to $7 \, km$ from her place of work?
$(iii)$ within $\frac{1}{2} \, km$ from her place of work?
