To continually increase the speed of computers, electrical engineers are working on ever-decreasing scales.
The size of devices currently undergoing development is measured in nanometers $(\mathrm{nm})$, or $10^{-9} \times$ meters. Engineers fabricating a new transmission-type electron multiplier ${ }^{2}$ created an array of silicon nanopillars on a flat silicon membrane. Subsequently, they measured the diameters $(\mathrm{nm})$ of 50 pillars.

Group these measurements into a frequency distribution and construct a histogram using (60,70], (70, 80],(80,90],(90,100],(100,110],(110,120], where the right-hand endpoint is included but the left-hand endpoint is not.
