  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Find median of the data, using empirical relation when it is given that mode $$=12.4$$ and mean $$=10.5$$.
    Solution
    Given, mode$$=12.4$$ and mean $$=10.5$$
    Emperical formula is:
    $$\text{mode} =3\times \text{median} - 2\times \text{mean}$$
    Substituting the values, we get
    $$12.4=3\times \text{median}$$ $$- 2(10.5)$$
    $$\Rightarrow 12.4=3\times\text{ median}$$ $$- 21$$
    $$\Rightarrow 3\times \text{median}$$ $$= 33.4$$
    $$\Rightarrow \text{Median}$$ $$= 11.13$$
    The median is $$ 11.13$$.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    If mean : median of a certain data is $$2 : 3$$, what is the ratio of its mode and mean?
    Solution
    $$\cfrac { mean }{ median } =\cfrac { 2 }{ 3 } \\ \cfrac { mode }{ mean } =?\\ \\ Since, \quad mode = \quad 3median - \quad 2mean \\ \quad mean-mode=3(mean-median)\\ \quad mean(1-\cfrac { mode }{ mean } )=3mean(1-\cfrac { median }{ mean } )\\ \Rightarrow 1-\cfrac { mode }{ mean } =3(1-\cfrac { 3 }{ 2 } )\\ \Rightarrow 1-\cfrac { mode }{ mean } =-\cfrac { 3 }{ 2 } \\ \Rightarrow 1+\cfrac { 3 }{ 2 } =\cfrac { mode }{ mean } $$

    Therefore, $$\cfrac { mode }{ mean } =\cfrac { 5 }{ 2 } $$
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    The demand for different shirt sizes is given in the table.
    Size
    38
    39
    40
    41
    42
    43
    44
    No of Persons
    26
    36
    20
    15
    13
    7
    5
    Find the modal shirt size.
    Solution
    $$Size\\ \quad 38\\ \quad 39\\ \quad 40\\ \quad 41\\ \quad 42\\ \quad 43\\ \quad 44$$       $$No\quad of\quad person\\ \quad \quad \quad 26\\ \quad \quad \quad 36\\ \quad \quad \quad 20\\ \quad \quad \quad 15\\ \quad \quad \quad 13\\ \quad \quad \quad 07\\ \quad \quad \quad 05\\ $$

    Therefore, number of person is maximum for size having $$39$$. Hence, modal size $$=39$$. 
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    If the ratio of mode and mean of a certain data is $$3 : 2$$, what is the ratio of its median and mean?
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    One of the methods to find out mode is ______.
    Solution
    In order to find mode, we can use the relation, mode $$= 3$$ median $$- 2$$ mean.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    On the occasion of New year's day a sweet stall prepared sweet packets. Number of sweet packets and cost of each packet are given as follows.
    Cost of packet (in Rs)$$Rs. 25$$$$Rs. 50$$$$Rs. 75$$$$Rs. 100$$$$Rs. 125$$$$Rs. 150$$
    No of packets$$20$$$$26$$$$32$$$$29$$$$22$$$$11$$
    Find the mean, median and mode of the data
    Solution
    Cost of packet Number of packets Cumulative frequency
     2520 20 
    50 26 46 
    75 32 78 
    100 29 107 
    125 22 129 
    150 11 140 
    To find the mean we will add up total cost of packers, then divide by total number of packets.
    So, Mean $$= \dfrac{(25\times 20 + 50 \times 26 + 75\times 32+100\times 29+125\times 22+150\times 11)}{(20+26+32+29+22+11)}$$
    Mean $$= \dfrac{(500 + 1300 +2400+ 2900+ 2750 + 1650)}{140} = \dfrac{11500}{140} = 82.1428$$
    As we can see that the cost of greatest number of packets is Rs. 75 each, so, the mode will be 75.
    As we can see there are 140 packets, arranged in increasing order of their cost. So, the middle one will be $$\dfrac{(140)}{2} = \dfrac{140}{2} = 70^{th}$$ packet in the list.
    So, the median will be the cost of packet corresponding to cumulative frequency just greater or equal to $$70\ i.e. 75$$.
    Therefore, median is $$75$$.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    For a certain frequency distribution, the value of Mean is $$101$$ and Median is $$100$$. Find the value of Mode.
    Solution
    We have

    Mean $$= 101$$

    Median $$= 100$$

    We know that,

    Mean $$-$$ Mode $$=$$ $$3($$Mean $$-$$ Median$$)$$

    $$101 -$$ Mode $$= 3(101 - 100)$$

    $$100 -$$ Mode $$= 3$$

    $$101 - 3 =$$ Mode

    Mode $$= 98$$
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    For the next three (03) items that follow : 
    The number of telephone calls received in 245 successive one minute intervals at an exchange is given below in the following frequency distribution. 
    Number of calls01234567
    Frequency1421254351403912
      What is the median of the distribution ? 
    Solution
    Here the No.of calls are $$0, 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7$$

    First we should Place the data in ascending order (smallest to highest).
    Here it is already in ascending order,

    Now  Add the two middle numbers and then divide by two, to get the average

    $$\dfrac {(3+4)}{2} = 3.5$$
    Hence The median is $$3.5.$$
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    For the next three (03) items that follow : 
    The number of telephone calls received in 245 successive one minute intervals at an exchange is given below in the following frequency distribution. 
    Number of calls01234567
    Frequency1421254351403912
      What is the mode of the distribution ? 
    Solution
    Mode of a frequency distribution $$=$$ the value that appears most often in the set
    From the given set, we can see that 
    $$4$$ occurs most ($$51$$ times)
    $$\therefore mode =4$$
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Class0-1010-2020-3030-4040-50
    Frequency515131710
    For the information given above, $$\left( \dfrac{n}{2} - cf \right )$$ will be = ...............
    Solution
    Class               Frequency      Cummulative frequency (cf)
    0-1055
    10-20155 + 15 = 20
    20-301320+13 = 33
    30-401733 + 17 = 50
    40-501050 + 10 = 60
    Hence $$ n = 60 $$
    $$\Rightarrow \dfrac{n}{2} = 30$$
    The cummulative frequency just greater than 30 is 33.
    So, the class 20-30 will be the median class.
    The cummulative frequency of the class preceding the median class is 20, that is cf = 20.
    So, $$\dfrac{n}{2} - cf = 30 - 20 = 10$$
