Answer
Step-by-step solution
4 stepsTo calculate the mean, median, and mode for grouped data, we first need to set up a table with class midpoints and cumulative frequencies.
Here's the data from the image:
| Class Interval | Frequency () |
|---|---|
| 1-5 | 12 |
| 6-10 | 30 |
| 11-15 | 9 |
| 16-20 | 7 |
| 21-25 | 6 |
| 26-30 | 4 |
Prepare the table with midpoints and cumulative frequencies.
We need the midpoint () for each class and the cumulative frequency (). The total frequency .
Class Interval Frequency () Midpoint () Cumulative Frequency () 1-5 12 3 36 12 6-10 30 8 240 42 11-15 9 13 117 51 16-20 7 18 126 58 21-25 6 23 138 64 26-30 4 28 112 68 Total 769 Calculate the Mean.
The formula for the mean of grouped data is:
Substitute the values from the table:
Rounding to two decimal places, the mean is .
Calculate the Median.
The formula for the median of grouped data is:
First, find the median class. . The 34th value falls in the class 6-10 (since its cumulative frequency is 42, which is the first greater than or equal to 34).
- (lower boundary of median class) =
- (cumulative frequency of class before median class) = 12 (for class 1-5)
- (frequency of median class) = 30
- (class width) =
Substitute these values into the formula:
Rounding to two decimal places, the median is .
Calculate the Mode.
The formula for the mode of grouped data is:
First, identify the modal class (the class with the highest frequency). The highest frequency is 30, which corresponds to the class 6-10.
- (lower boundary of modal class) =
- (frequency of modal class) = 30
- (frequency of class before modal class) = 12 (for class 1-5)
- (frequency of class after modal class) = 9 (for class 11-15)
- (class width) =
Substitute these values into the formula:
Rounding to two decimal places, the mode is .
