Detailed Solution & Explanation
An Ogive is a graphical representation of a cumulative frequency distribution. In statistics, there are exactly **two** standard methods/types of constructing an Ogive:
1. **Less than Ogive**: Constructed by plotting the upper boundaries of class intervals on the x-axis and their corresponding 'less than' cumulative frequencies on the y-axis. The curve is rising (non-decreasing) from left to right.
2. **More than Ogive**: Constructed by plotting the lower boundaries of class intervals on the x-axis and their corresponding 'more than' cumulative frequencies on the y-axis. The curve is falling (non-increasing) from left to right.
Thus, an Ogive can be prepared in 2 different ways. This corresponds to Option A.
Hence, **Option A** is the correct answer.
