Answer.  [C]
Solution. Frequency:- The number of times a event occurs is a specific period is called frequency. 
The number of athletes who are below 14.6  = frequency of class (13.8-14) + frequency of class (14- 14.2) +
frequency of class (14.2-14.4) + frequency of class (14.4-14.6)
= 2 + 4 + 5 + 71 = 82
Hence the frequency of race completed in less than 14.6 = 82
