(iv) Runs in an innings : 18, 32, 0, 40, 60, 69, 33, 69, 35, 11, 20
Solution:
(i) Arranging the given data in ascending order; we have
1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 6, 7, 11
Here 4 repeated maximum no. of times.
∴ required mode = 4
(ii) Arranging the given data in ascending order : 4, 4, 4.5, 4.5, 4.5, 4.5, 5, 5, 5.5, 6
Here 4.5 repeated maximum no. of times.
∴ required mode = 4.5
(iii) Arranging the given data in ascending order :
100, 100, 100, 120, 120, 120, 120, 120, 130, 130
Here 120 repeated maximum no. of times i.e. 5 times. Thus required mode = 120
(iv) Arranging the given data in ascending order: 0, 11, 18, 20, 32, 33, 35, 40, 60, 69, 69
Here 69 repeated maximum no. of times
∴ required mode = 69
Question 2.
Find the mode from the following data in question 2 to 7.
Marks | 10 | 12 | 15 | 22 | 25 | 35 | 45 | 50 | 60 |
Number of students | 4 | 6 | 10 | 14 | 20 | 19 | 10 | 6 | 3 |
Solution:
Here maximum frequency be 20 and corresponding observation be 25. Thus required modal marks be 25.
Question 3.
Size | 8 | 10 | 12 | 14 | 16 | 18 | 20 | 22 | 24 |
Frequency | 3 | 5 | 1 | 7 | 8 | 6 | 4 | 2 | 3 |
Solution:
The table of values is given as under:
∴ Mean = \(\frac{\Sigma f x}{\Sigma f}\) = \(\frac{652}{41}\)
Here, \(\frac{N+1}{2}\) = \(\frac{41+1}{2}\) = 21
Thus Md = 16
∴ Mode = 3 median – 2 mean = 3 × 16 – 2 × \(\frac{652}{41}\) ≃ 16.19
Question 4.
Class interval | 0-10 | 10-20 | 20-30 | 30-40 |
Frequency | 10 | 45 | 12 | 3 |
Solution:
From given data, maximum frequency be 45 and thus 10 – 20 be the modal class.
Here l = 10; fm = 45 ; fm-1 = 10; fm+1 = 12 ; i = 10
Mode = \(l+\frac{f_m-f_{m-1}}{2 f_m-f_{m-1}-f_{m+1}} \times i\) = 10 + \(\frac{45-10}{90-10-12} \times 10\) = 10 + \(\frac{350}{68}\) = 10 + 5.1470 = 15.147
Question 5.
Marks | 0-10 | 10-20 | 20-30 | 30-40 | 40-50 |
Number of students | 8 | 16 | 26 | 60 | 38 |
Solution:
Here maximum frequency be 60 and modal class be 30 – 40.
Here, l = 30; fm = 60; fm-1 = 28 ; fm+1 = 38 ; i = 10
∴ Mode = \(l+\frac{f_m-f_{m-1}}{2 f_m-f_{m-1}-f_{m+1}} \times i\) = 30 + \(\frac{60-28}{120-28-38} \times 10\) =30 + \(\frac{320}{56}\) = 35.71
Question 6.
Marks | Frequency | Marks | Frequency |
1-5 | 7 | 26-30 | 18 |
6-10 | 10 | 31-35 | 10 |
11-15 | 16 | 36-40 | 5 |
16-20 | 32 | 41-45 | 1 |
21-25 | 24 |
Solution:
Given class-intervals are discontinuous we make it continuous with the help of adjustment factor.
Here adjustment factor = \(\frac{6-5}{2}\) = 0.5
We subtract 0.5 from each lower limit and add 0.5 to each upper limit.
Here modal class be 15.5 – 20.5
∴ l = 15.5; fm = 32 ; fm-1 = 16; fm+1 = 24; i = 5
Thus,
Mode = \(l+\frac{f_m-f_{m-1}}{2 f_m-f_{m-1}-f_{m+1}} \times i\)
= 15.5 + \(\frac{32-16}{64-16-24} \times 5\)
= 15.5 + \(\frac{80}{24}\) ≃ 18.84
Question 7.
Mid-value | 60 | 64 | 68 | 72 | 76 |
Frequency | 25 | 8 | 10 | 6 | 4 |
Solution:
The table of values is given as under:
Mid-value | Class Intervals | Frequency(f) |
60 | 58-62 | 25 |
64 | 62-66 | 8 |
68 | 66-70 | 10 |
72 | 70-74 | 6 |
76 | 74-78 | 4 |
Σf = N = 53 |
Here Modal class be 58 – 62.
Here
l = 58; fm = 25 ; fm+1 = 8 ; i = 4 ; fm-1 = 0
Thus Mode = \(l+\frac{f_m-f_{m-1}}{2 f_m-f_{m-1}-f_{m+1}} \times i\) = 58 + \(\frac{25-0}{50-8}\) × 4 = 60.38
Question 8.
(i) The mode of the following frequency distribution is 48.6 Find the unknown frequency.
Class | 20-25 | 25-40 | 40-55 | 55-70 | 70-85 |
Frequency | 6 | 20 | 44 | ? | 3 |
(ii) If the frequency of the class 70-85 is 13 instead of 3, then what difference will it make?
Solution:
Let the missing frequency be f.
Here modal class be 40 – 55.
∴ l = 40; fm = 44 ; fm-1 = 20 ; fm+1 = f; i = 15
Thus,
Mode = \( l+\frac{f_m-f_{m-1}}{2 f_m-f_{m-1}-f_{m-1}} \times i\)
48.6 = 40 + \(\frac{44-20}{88-20-f} \times 15\)
⇒ 8.6 = \(\frac{360}{68-f}\)
⇒ 584.8 – 8.6f = 360
⇒ 8.6(68 – f) = 360
⇒ 584.8 – 8.6f = 360
⇒ 8.6 f = 224.8
⇒ f = 26.14
If the frequency of class 70 – 85 is 13 instead of 3.
Then value of mode is unaffected as value of mode affected if there are changes in the values of fm, fm-1 and fm+1.
Question 9.
Find the mean, median and mode of the following :
(i) The data 17, 32, 35, 33, 15, 21, 41, 32, 11, 18, 20, 22, 11, 15, 35, 23, 38, 12.
(ii)
Size of item | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 |
Frequency | 8 | 13 | 25 | 37 | 23 | 15 | 9 |
Solution:
(i) Required Mean = \(\frac{17+32+35+33+15+21+41+32+11+18+20+22+11+15+35+23+38+12}{18}\)
= \(\frac{431}{18}\) = 23.94
Arranging the given data in ascending order ; we have
11, 11, 12, 15, 15, 17, 18, 20, 21, 22, 23, 32, 32, 33, 35, 35, 38, 41
Here no. of observations = n = 18(even)
The observations 11, 15, 32 and 35 repeated equal no. of times i.e. 2 times. Thus, mode is illdefined.
(ii) The table of values is given as under:
∴ Mean = \(\frac{\Sigma f x}{\Sigma f}\) = \(\frac{1825}{130}\) ≃ 14.04
Here, \(\frac{N+1}{2}\) = \(\frac{130+1}{2}\) = 65.5 ∴ Median = 14
Further maximum frequency be 37 and corresponding value of x i.e. 14 gives the required value of mode.
Question 10.
The mode of the following distribution is 240. Find out the missing frequency :
Size | Frequency | Size | Frequency |
0-100 | 140 | 300-400 | ? |
100-200 | 230 | 400-500 | 150 |
200-300 | 270 | 500-600 | 140 |
Solution:
Let the missing frequency be f.
Clearly the maximum frequency be 270 and modal class be 200 – 300.
Here l = 200; fm = 270 ; fm-1 = 230 ; fm+1 = f ; i = 100
Thus, Mode = \(l+\frac{f_m-f_{m-1}}{2 f_m-f_{m-1}-f_{m+1}} \times i\) ⇒ 240 = 200 + \(\frac{(270-230)}{540-230-f} \times 100\)
⇒ 40 = \(\frac{4000}{310-f}\) ⇒ 40(310 – f) = 4000 ⇒ 12400 – 40f = 4000 ⇒ 40f = 8400 ⇒f = 210
Question 11.
Find the median, mode, third quartile, 5th decile and 65th percentile from the following :
Value of the item | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
Frequency | 25 | 30 | 38 | 45 | 46 | 58 | 32 | 34 | 25 | 22 |
Solution:
The table of values is given as under:
Here \(\frac{N+1}{2}\) = \(\frac{355+1}{2}\) = 178 ∴ Md = 5
Here maximum Frequency be 58 and corresponding value of x i.e. 6 be the required value of mode.
Q3 : Here \(\frac{3(\mathrm{~N}+1)}{4}\) = \(\frac{3 \times 356}{4} \) = 267 and corresponding c.f be 274 and the corresponding value of x gives the required value of Q3. Thus Q3 = 7
D5 : Here, \(\frac{5(\mathrm{~N}+1)}{10}\) = \(\frac{5 \times 356}{10}\) = 178
∴ D6 = size of 178th item = 5
P65 ; Here, \(\frac{65(\mathrm{~N}+1)}{100}\) = \(\frac{65 \times 356}{100}\) = 231.4
∴ P65 = size of 231.4th item = 6
Question 12.
Find median, mean and modal marks and also determine the limits between which 80% of the students have secured marks.
Marks | No. of students | Marks | No. of students |
0-10 | 15 | 50-60 | 80 |
10-20 | 25 | 60-70 | 70 |
20-30 | 52 | 70-80 | 10 |
30-40 | 56 | 80-90 | 5 |
40-50 | 78 | 90-100 | 2 |
Solution:
The table of values is given as under:
Then by Step-deviation method, we have
Mean \(\bar{x}\) = A + \(\frac{\Sigma f d^{\prime}}{\mathrm{N}}\) × i = 45 – \(\frac { 15 }{ 393 }\) × 10 = 44.62
Here \(\frac { N }{ 2 }\) = \(\frac { 393 }{ 2 }\) = 196.5 which lies in 40 – 50.
Thus median class be 40 – 50.
Here
l = 40; f = 78; c = 148 ; i = 10
∴ Md = \(l+\frac{\frac{\mathrm{N}}{2}-\mathrm{C}}{f} \times i\) = 40 + \(\frac{196.5-148}{78} \times 10\) = 40 + 6.2195 = 46.22
Clearly modal class be 50 – 60.
Here l = 50 ; fm = 80 ; fm-1 = 78 ; fm+1 = 70 ; i = 10
∴ Mode = \(l+\frac{f_m-f_{m-1}}{2 f_m-f_{m-1}-f_{m+1}} \times i\) = 50 + \(\frac{80-78}{160-78-70}\) × 10 = 50 + \(\frac { 20 }{ 12 }\) = 51.67
P10: Here \(\frac{10 \times N}{100}\) = \(\frac{10 \times 393}{100}\) = 39.3 which lies in 10 – 20
Here l = 10; c = 15; f = 25; i = 10
\(\mathrm{P}_{90}=l+\frac{\frac{90 \mathrm{~N}}{100}-\mathrm{C}}{f} \times i\) = \(60+\frac{353.7-306}{70} \times 10\) = 66.81
The required limits between which 80% students have secured marks be 19.72 and 66.81.
