Recorder data are \(10,5,8,16,18,20,8,10,16,20,18,11,16,14\) and 12
Let us arrange the following data in ascending order to find out the median and mode, \(5,8,8,10,10,11,12,14,16,16,16,18,18,20,20\)
Total number of observation \(=15\)
\(\operatorname{Mean}=\frac{\sum \mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{5+8+8+10+10+11+12+14+16+16+16+18+18+20+20}{15}=\frac{202}{15}\)
Median \(=\) value of \(\left(\frac{n+1}{2}\right)^{\text {th }}\) observation
\(\therefore\) Median \(=8^{\text {th }}\) observation \(=14\)
From above observation 16 occurs maximum number of times.
\(\therefore\) Mode \(=16\)
Given: One of the values is wrongly written as \(16\) instead of \(18\)
\(5,8,8,10,10,11,12,14,16,16,18,18,18,20,20\)
Mean \(=\frac{\sum \mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{5+8+8+10+10+11+12+14+16+16+18+18+18+20+20}{15}=\frac{204}{15}\)
Median \(=\) value of \(\left(\frac{\mathrm{n}+1}{2}\right)^{\text {th }}\) observation
\(\therefore\) Median \(=8^{\text {th }}\) observation \(=14\)
From above observation 18 occurs maximum number of times.
\(\therefore \text { Mode }=18\)
We can see that Mean and mode are changed.
