II. Answer the Following Questions

Question 1.
Find the Arithmetic mean for the following data.

Solution:

Arithmetic mean (\(\bar { X }\)) = \(\frac{Σfx}{Σf}\)
= \(\frac{5540}{96}\)
= 57.7
∴ Arithmetic mean = 57.7

Question 2.
Calculate the Arithmetic mean of the following data using step deviation method.

Solution:
Assumed mean = 35

Arithmetic mean (\(\bar { X }\)) = A + \(\frac{Σfd}{Σf}\) × c
= 35 + \(\frac{(-20)}{100}\) × 10
= 35 – 2
= 33
∴ Arithmetic mean = 33

Question 3.
Find the median for the following data.

Solution:
The given class intervals is inclusive type we convert it into exclusive type.

\(\frac{N}{2}\) = \(\frac{70}{2}\)
= 35
Median class is 25.5 – 30.5
Here l = 25.5, f = 26, m = 30, c = 5
Median = l + \(\frac{\frac{N}{2}-m}{f}\) × c
= 25.5 + \(\frac{35-30}{26}\) × 5
= 25.5 + \(\frac{5×5}{26}\)
= 25.5 + 0.96
= 26.46
∴ Median = 26.46

Question 4.
Calculate the mode of the following data.

Solution:

The highest frequency is 30. Corresponding class interval is the modal class.
Here l = 25, f = 30, f₁ = 18, f₂ = 20 and c = 5
Mode

∴ Arithmetic mean = 25 + 2.727
= 25 + 2.73
= 27.73
mode = 27.73

Question 5.
Find the mean, median and mode of marks obtained by 20 students in an examination. The marks are given below.

Solution:

Arithmetic mean:
Here Σfx = 560, Σf = 20
\(\bar { X }\) = \(\frac{Σfx}{Σf}\)
= \(\frac{560}{20}\)

Median:
Median class is 20 – 30
Here l = 20, \(\frac{N}{2}\) = 10, m = 5, c = 10, f = 5
Median

= 20 + 10
= 30

Mode:
The highest frequency is 8
Modal class is 30 – 40
Here, l = 30, f = 8, f₁ = 5, f₂ = 2, c = 10
Mode

= 33.33
Mean = 28, median = 30, mode = 33.33
