Frequency Distribution Table

Marksf0−20820−401440−601860−801680−10012Total68\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline \text{Marks} & f \\ \hline 0-20 & 8 \\ 20-40 & 14 \\ 40-60 & 18 \\ 60-80 & 16 \\ 80-100 & 12 \\ \hline \text{Total} & 68 \\ \hline \end{array}
  1. Class size

    Class size == upper limit −- lower limit of any class.

    Class size =20−0=20= 20 - 0 = 20.

    Class size =20= 20

  2. Median class

    Total frequency N=68N = 68.

    Median position =N+12=692=34.5= \frac{N+1}{2} = \frac{69}{2} = 34.5.

    Cumulative frequencies:

    ClassC.F.0−20820−402240−604060−805680−10068\begin{array}{c|c} \text{Class} & \text{C.F.} \\ \hline 0-20 & 8 \\ 20-40 & 22 \\ 40-60 & 40 \\ 60-80 & 56 \\ 80-100 & 68 \\ \hline \end{array}

    C.F. first exceeds 34.5 at class 40−6040-60.

    Median class =40−60= 40-60

  3. Modal class

    Modal class is the class with highest frequency.

    Highest f=18f=18 for class 40−6040-60.

    Modal class =40−60= 40-60

  4. Mean

    Midpoints xix_i: 10,30,50,70,9010, 30, 50, 70, 90.

    ∑fxi=80+420+900+1120+1080=3600\sum f x_i = 80 + 420 + 900 + 1120 + 1080 = 3600.

    Mean xˉ=∑fxiN=360068\bar{x} = \frac{\sum f x_i}{N} = \frac{3600}{68}.

    3600÷68=3600÷468÷4=900173600 \div 68 = \frac{3600 \div 4}{68 \div 4} = \frac{900}{17}.

    90017=521617\frac{900}{17} = 52 \frac{16}{17}.

    Mean =90017= \dfrac{900}{17}
    \dfrac{900}{17}
