The midrange is the mean of the highest and lowest scores.
Each "stem" in the left column represents the tens digits of the scores; each of the numbers in its row, or "leaf" represents the units digits. The lowest score is represented by the 4 "leaf" in the "3" row - that is, it is 34 - and the highest score is represented by the 8 "leaf" in the "9" row - that is, 98. The midrange is therefore

The dividing points of the intervals used to classify students on this graph occur at multiples of 100. No details are given for each interval beyond the number of students who scored in it, so, for example, within the interval 500-600, it is not made clear how many of the 40 students scored above or below 550. The answer is that insufficient information is provided.

Solution
The height of each bar shows the number of employees who attained that particular level of education. So to find the total number of employees, we add the numbers shown by all the bars in the histogram.
The total number of employees is 200.
