Exercise: 14.3

1. The following frequency distribution gives the monthly consumption of electricity of $\mathbf{68}$  consumers of a locality. Find the median, mean and mode of the data and compare them.

 Monthly Consumption (in units) Number of Consumers $65-85$ $4$ $85-105$ $5$ $105-125$ $13$ $125-145$ $20$ $145-165$ $14$ $165-185$ $8$ $185-205$ $4$

Ans: The mean can be found as given below:

$\overline{X}=a+\left( \frac{\sum{{{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}}}{\sum{{{f}_{i}}}} \right)h$

Suppose the assured mean $\left( a \right)$ of the data is $32.5$.

Class mark $\left( {{x}_{i}} \right)$ for each interval is calculated as follows:

To find the class mark for each interval, the following relation is used.

Class mark ${{x}_{i}}=\frac{\text{Upper class limit+Lower class limit}}{2}$

Class size ($h$) of this data is:

$h=85-65$

$h=20$

[${{d}_{i}},$${{u}_{i}},$and ${{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}$ can be calculated according to step deviation method as follows:

 Monthlyconsumption(in units) Number of Consumers${{f}_{i}}$ Class Mark ${{x}_{i}}$ ${{d}_{i}}={{x}_{i}}-135$ ${{u}_{i}}=\frac{{{d}_{i}}}{20}$ ${{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}$ $65-85$ $4$ $75$ $-60$ $-3$ $-12$ $85-105$ $5$ $95$ $-40$ $-2$ $-10$ $105-125$ $13$ $115$ $-20$ $-1~$ $-13$ $125-145$ $20$ $135$ $0~$ $0~$ $0~$ $145-165$ $14$ $155$ $20$ $1$ $14$ $165-185$ $8$ $175$ $40$ $2$ $16$ $185-205$ $4$ $195$ $60$ $3$ $12$ Total $68$ $7$

It can be observed from the above table

$\sum{{{f}_{i}}=68}$

$\sum{{{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}}=7$

Class size $\left( h \right)\text{ }=\text{ }20$

Substituting ${{u}_{i}},$and ${{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}$ in the formula of mean

The required mean:

$\overline{X}=a+\left(\frac{\sum{{{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}}}{\sum{{{f}_{i}}}}\right)\times h$

$\Rightarrow\overline{X}=135+\left(\frac{7}{68} \right)\times (20)$

$\Rightarrow\overline{X}=135+\frac{140}{68}$

$\Rightarrow\overline{X}=137.058$

Hence, the mean of given data is $137.058$.

For Mode

Mode can be calculated as

$M=l+\left( \frac{{{f}_{1}}-{{f}_{0}}}{2{{f}_{1}}-{{f}_{0}}-{{f}_{2}}} \right)\times h$

Where

$l=$ Lower limit of modal class

${{\text{f}}_{1}}=$ Frequency of modal class

${{f}_{0}}=$ Frequency of class preceding the modal class

${{f}_{2}}=$ Frequency of class succeeding the modal class

$h=$Class size

From the table, it can be noticed that the maximum class frequency is $20$ ,

Belongs to class interval $125-145$.

Modal class = $125-145$

$l=125$

Class size $\text{h}=20$

${{f}_{1}}=20$

${{f}_{0}}=13$

${{f}_{2}}=14$

Substituting these values in the formula of mode we get:

$M=l+\left( \frac{{{f}_{1}}-{{f}_{0}}}{2{{f}_{1}}-{{f}_{0}}-{{f}_{2}}} \right)\times h$

$\Rightarrow M=125+\left( \frac{20-13}{2(20)-13-14} \right)\times 20$

$\Rightarrow M=125+\frac{7}{13}\times 20$

$\Rightarrow M=135.76$

Hence, the value of mode is $135.76$

For Median

We can calculate the median as given below:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

Where

$l=$ Lower limit of median class

$h=$ Class size

$f=$ Frequency of median class

$cf=$ cumulative frequency of class preceding median class

To find the median of the given data, cumulative frequency is calculated as follows.

 Monthly consumption (in units) Number of Consumers Cumulative Frequency $65-85$ $4$ $4$ $85-105$ $5$ $4+5=9$ $105-125$ $13$ $9+13=22$ $125-145$ $20$ $22+20=42$ $145-165$ $14$ $42+14=56$ $165-185$ $8$ $56+8=64$ $185-205$ $4$ $64+4=68$

It can be observed from the given table

$n\text{ }=\text{ }68$

$\frac{\text{n}}{2}=34$

Cumulative frequency just greater than $\frac{\text{n}}{2}$ is  $42$ , belonging to

interval $125-145$.

Therefore, median class = $125-145$.

$l=\text{ }125$

$\text{h }=\text{ }20$

$f=20$

$cf=22$

Substituting these values in the formula of median we get:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

$\Rightarrow m=125+\left( \frac{34-22}{20} \right)\times 20$

$\Rightarrow m=125+12$

$\Rightarrow m=137$

Hence, median, mode, mean of the given data is $137,\text{ }135.76,$ and $137.05$ respectively.

Mean, mode and median are almost equal in this case.

2. If the median of the distribution is given below is$\mathbf{28}.\mathbf{5}$, find the values of $\mathbf{x}$ and $\mathbf{y}$.

 Class interval Frequency $0-10$ $5$ $10-20$ $X$ $20-30$ $20$ $30-40$ $15$ $40-50$ $Y$ $50-60$ $5$ Total $60$

Ans: We can calculate the median as given below:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

Where

$l=$ Lower limit of median class

$h=$ Class size

$f=$ Frequency of median class

$cf=$ cumulative frequency of class preceding median class

The cumulative frequency for the given data is calculated as follows.

 Class interval Frequency Cumulative frequency $0-10$ $5$ $5$ $10-20$ $X$ $5+x$ $20-30$ $20$ $25+x$ $30-40$ $15$ $40+x$ $40-50$ $Y$ $40+x+y$ $50-60$ $5$ $45+x+y$ Total $(n)$ $60$

It is given that the value of $\text{n}$ is $60$

From the table, it can be noticed that the cumulative frequency of last entry is $45+x+y$

Equating $45+x+y$ and $\text{n}$, we get:

$45\text{ }+\text{ }x\text{ }+\text{ }y\text{ }=\text{ }60$

$x\text{ }+\text{ }y\text{ }=\text{ }15\text{ }$……(1)

It is given that.

Median of the data is given $28.5$ which lies in interval $20-30$.

Therefore, median class = $20-30$

$l=\text{ 20}$

$cf=5+x$

$f=\text{ }20$

$h=10$

Substituting these values in the formula of median we get:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

$\Rightarrow 28.5=20+\left( \frac{\frac{60}{2}-(5+x)}{20} \right)\times 10$

$\Rightarrow 8.5=\left( \frac{25-x}{2} \right)$

$\Rightarrow 17=25-x$

$\Rightarrow x=8$

Substituting $x=8$ in equation (1), we get:

$8\text{ }+\text{ }y\text{ }=\text{ }15$

$y\text{ }=\text{ }7$

Hence, the values of $x$ and $y$ are $8$  and $7$  respectively.

3. A life insurance agent found the following data for distribution of ages of $\mathbf{100}$  policy holders. Calculate the median age, if policies are given only to persons having age $\mathbf{18}$  years onwards but less than $\mathbf{60}$  year.

 Age (in years) Number of Policy Holders Below $20$ $2$ Below $25$ $6$ Below $30$ $24$ Below $35$ $45$ Below $40$ $78$ Below $45$ $89$ Below $50$ $92$ Below $55$ $98$ Below $60$ $100$

Ans: We can calculate the median as given below:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

Where

$l=$ Lower limit of median class

$h=$ Class size

$f=$ Frequency of median class

$cf=$ cumulative frequency of class preceding median class

In this case, class width is not the constant. We are not required to adjust the frequencies according to class intervals. The given frequency table is of less than type represented with upper class limits. The policies were given only to persons with age $18$  years onwards but less than $60$  years. Therefore, class intervals with their respective cumulative frequency can be defined as below.

 Age (in years) Number of Policy Holders $({{f}_{i}})$ Cumulative Frequency$(cf)$ $18-20$ $2$ $2$ $20-25$ $6-2=4$ $6$ $25-30$ $24-6=18$ $24$ $30-35$ $45-24=21$ $45$ $35-40$ $78-45=33$ $78$ $40-45$ $89-78=11$ $89$ $45-50$ $92-89=3$ $92$ $50-55$ $98-92=6$ $98$ $55-60$ $100-98=2$ $100$ Total $(n)$

From the table, it can be observed that $n\text{ }=\text{ }100$ .

Thus,

$\frac{\text{n}}{2}=50$

Cumulative frequency ($cf$) just greater than $\frac{n}{2}$ is$78$ ,

belongs interval $35\text{ }-\text{ }40$ .

Therefore, median class = $35\text{ }-\text{ }40$

$l=35$

$\text{h}=5$

$f=33$

$cf=45$

Substituting these values in the formula of median we get:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

$\Rightarrow m=35+\left( \frac{50-45}{33} \right)\times 5$

$\Rightarrow m=35+\left( \frac{25}{33} \right)$

$\Rightarrow m=35.76$

Hence, median age of people who get the policies is $35.76$ years.

4. The lengths of $\mathbf{40}$  leaves of a plant are measured correct to the nearest millimeter, and the data obtained is represented in the following table:

 Length (in mm) Number of leaves ${{f}_{i}}$ $118-126$ $3$ $127-135$ $5$ $136-144$ $9$ $145-153$ $12$ $154-162$ $5$ $163-171$ $4$ $172-180$ $2$

Find the median length of the leaves.

(Hint: The data needs to be converted to continuous classes for finding the median, since the formula assumes continuous classes. The classes then change to$\mathbf{117}.\mathbf{5}\text{ }-\text{ }\mathbf{126}.\mathbf{5},\text{ }\mathbf{126}.\mathbf{5}\text{ }-\text{ }\mathbf{135}.\mathbf{5}...\text{ }\mathbf{171}.\mathbf{5}\text{ }-\text{ }\mathbf{180}.\mathbf{5}$)

Ans: We can calculate the median as given below:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

Where

$l=$ Lower limit of median class

$h=$ Class size

$f=$ Frequency of median class

$cf=$ cumulative frequency of class preceding median class

The given data does not have continuous class intervals. It can be noticed that the difference between two class intervals is$1$ . Therefore, we will add $0.5$ in the upper class and subtract $0.5$ in the lower class.

Continuous class intervals with respective cumulative frequencies can be represented as follows.

 Length (in mm) Number of leaves ${{f}_{i}}$ Cumulative frequency $117.5-126.5$ $3$ $3$ $126.5-135.5$ $5$ $3+5=8$ $135.5-144.5$ $9$ $8+9=17$ $144.5-153.5$ $12$ $17+12=29$ $153.5-162.5$ $5$ $29+5=34$ $162.5-171.5$ $4$ $34+4=38$ $171.5-180.5$ $2$ $38+2=40$

It can be observed from the given table

$n=\text{40}$

$\frac{\text{n}}{2}=20$

From the table, it can be noticed that the cumulative frequency just greater than

$\frac{n}{2}$ is $29$ , Belongs to interval $144.5-153.5$ .

median class = $144.5-153.5$

$l=144.5$

$\text{h}=9$

$f=12$

$cf=17$

Substituting these values in the formula of median we get:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

$m=144.5+\left( \frac{20-17}{12} \right)\times 9$

$m=144.5+\left( \frac{9}{4} \right)$

$m=146.75$

Hence, median length of leaves is $146.75$ mm.

5. The following table gives the distribution of the life time of $\mathbf{400}$  neon lamps:

 Lifetime (inhours) Number ofLamps $1500-2000$ $14$ $2000-2500$ $56$ $2500-3000$ $60$ $3000-3500$ $86$ $3500-4000$ $74$ $4000-4500$ $62$ $4500-5000$ $48$

Find the median life time of a lamp.

Ans: We can calculate the median as given below:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

Where

$l=$ Lower limit of median class

$h=$ Class size

$f=$ Frequency of median class

$cf=$ cumulative frequency of class preceding median class

The cumulative frequencies with their respective class intervals are as follows.

 Lifetime (inhours) Number ofLamps Cumulative Frequency $1500-2000$ $14$ $14$ $2000-2500$ $56$ $14+56=70$ $2500-3000$ $60$ $70+60=130$ $3000-3500$ $86$ $130+86=216$ $3500-4000$ $74$ $216+74=290$ $4000-4500$ $62$ $290+62=352$ $4500-5000$ $48$ $352+48=400$ Total$(n)$ $400$

It can be observed from the given table

$n\text{ }=400$

$\frac{\text{n}}{2}=200$

It can be observed that the cumulative frequency just greater than

$\frac{n}{2}$ is $290$ ,Belongs to interval $3000-3500$ .

Median class = $3000-3500$

$l=3000$

$f=86$

$cf=130$

$h=500$

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

$m=3000+\left( \frac{200-130}{86} \right)\times 500$

$m=3000+\left( \frac{70\times 500}{86} \right)$

$m=3406.976$

Hence, median life time of lamps is $3406.98$ hours.

6.$\mathbf{100}$ surnames were randomly picked up from a local telephone directory and the frequency distribution of the number of letters in the English alphabets in the surnames was obtained as follows:

 Numberof letters $1-4$ $4-7$ $7-10$ $10-13$ $13-16$ $16-19$ Number ofSurnames $6$ $30$ $40$ $16$ $4$ $4$

Determine the median number of letters in the surnames. Find the mean number of letters in the surnames? Also, find the modal size of the surnames.

Ans: For median

We can calculate the median as given below:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

Where

$l=$ Lower limit of median class

$h=$ Class size

$f=$ Frequency of median class

$cf=$ cumulative frequency of class preceding median class

The cumulative frequencies with their respective class intervals are as follows.

 Numberof Letters Number ofSurnames Cumulative Frequency $1-4$ $6$ $6$ $4-7$ $30$ $30+6=36$ $7-10$ $40$ $36+40=76$ $10-13$ $16$ $76+16=92$ $13-16$ $4$ $92+4=96$ $16-19$ $4$ $96+4=100$ Total$(n)$ $100$

It can be observed from the given table

$n\text{ }=100$

$\frac{\text{n}}{2}=50$

It can be noticed that the cumulative frequency just greater than

$\frac{n}{2}$ is $76$ , Belongs to interval $7-10$ .

Median class = $7-10$

$l=7$

$cf=36$

$f=40$

$\text{h}=3$

Substituting these values in the formula of median we get:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

$m=7+\left( \frac{50-36}{40} \right)\times 3$

$m=7+\left( \frac{14\times 3}{40} \right)$

$m=8.05$

Hence, the median number of letters in the surnames is $8.05$.

For Mean

The mean can be found as given below:

$\overline{X}=a+\left( \frac{\sum{{{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}}}{\sum{{{f}_{i}}}} \right)h$

Suppose the assured mean $\left( a \right)$ of the data is $11.5$.

Class mark $\left( {{x}_{i}} \right)$ for each interval is calculated as follows:

Class mark $\left( {{x}_{i}} \right)=\frac{\text{Upper class limit+Lower class limit}}{2}$

Class size ($h$) of this data is:

$h=4-1$

$h=3$

${{d}_{i}},$${{u}_{i}},$and ${{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}$ can be calculated according to step deviation method as follows:

 Number of letters Number of surnames${{f}_{i}}$ ${{x}_{i}}$ ${{d}_{i}}={{x}_{i}}-11.5$ ${{u}_{i}}=\frac{{{d}_{i}}}{20}$ ${{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}$ $1-4$ $6$ $2.5$ $-9$ $-3$ $-18$ $4-7$ $30$ $5.5$ $-6$ $-2$ $-60$ $7-10$ $40$ $8.5$ $-3$ $-1~$ $-40$ $10-13$ $16$ $11.5$ $0~$ $0~$ $0~$ $13-16$ $4$ $14.5$ $3$ $1$ $4$ $16-19$ $4$ $17.5$ $6$ $2$ $8$ Total $100$ $-106$

It can be observed from the above table

$\sum{{{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}}=-106$

$\sum{{{f}_{i}}=100}$

Substituting ${{u}_{i}},$and ${{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}$ in the formula of mean

The required mean:

$\overline{X}=a+\left( \frac{\sum{{{f}_{i}}{{u}_{i}}}}{\sum{{{f}_{i}}}} \right)\times h$

$\overline{X}=11.5+\left( \frac{-106}{100} \right)\times 3$

$\Rightarrow \overline{X}=11.5-3.18$

$\Rightarrow \overline{X}=8.32$

Hence the mean of number of letters in the surnames is $8.32$.

For Mode

Mode can be calculated as

$M=l+\left( \frac{{{f}_{1}}-{{f}_{0}}}{2{{f}_{1}}-{{f}_{0}}-{{f}_{2}}} \right)\times h$

Where

$l=$ Lower limit of modal class

${{\text{f}}_{1}}=$ Frequency of modal class

${{f}_{0}}=$ Frequency of class preceding the modal class

${{f}_{2}}=$ Frequency of class succeeding the modal class

$h=$Class size

The data in the given table can be written as

 Numberof Letters Frequency $({{f}_{i}})$ $1-4$ $6$ $4-7$ $30$ $7-10$ $40$ $10-13$ $16$ $13-16$ $4$ $16-19$ $4$ Total$(n)$ $100$

From the table, it can be observed that the maximum class frequency is $40$

Belongs to $7-10$ class intervals.

Therefore, modal class = $7-10$

$l=7$

$h=3$

${{f}_{1}}=40$

${{f}_{0}}=30$

${{f}_{2}}=16$

Substituting these values in the formula of mode we get:

$m=l+\left( \frac{{{f}_{1}}-{{f}_{0}}}{2{{f}_{1}}-{{f}_{0}}-{{f}_{2}}} \right)\times h$

$m=7+\left( \frac{40-30}{2(40)-30-16} \right)\times 3$

$m=7+\left( \frac{10}{34} \right)\times 3$

$m=7+\frac{30}{34}$

$m=7.88$

Hence, modal size of surname is $7.88$.

7.The distribution below gives the weights of $\mathbf{30}$  students of a class. Find the median weight of the students.

 Weight(in kg) $40-45$ $45-50$ $50-55$ $55-60$ $60-65$ $65-70$ $70-75$ Numberofstudents $2$ $3$ $8$ $6$ $6$ $3$ $2$

Ans: We can calculate the median as given below:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

Where

$l=$ Lower limit of median class

$h=$ Class size

$f=$ Frequency of median class

$cf=$ cumulative frequency of class preceding median class

The cumulative frequencies with their respective class intervals are as follows :

 Weight (in kg) Numberof Students Cumulative Frequency $40-45$ $2$ $2$ $45-50$ $3$ $2+3=5$ $50-55$ $8$ $5+8=13$ $55-60$ $6$ $13+6=19$ $60-65$ $6$ $19+6=25$ $65-70$ $3$ $25+3=28$ $70-75$ $2$ $28+2=30$ Total$(n)$ $30$

It can be observed from the given table

$n\text{ }=30$

$\frac{\text{n}}{2}=15$

Cumulative frequency just greater than $\frac{n}{2}$ is $19$, Belongs to class interval $55-60$.

Median class = $55-60$

$l=55$

$f=6$

$cf=13$

$h=5$

Substituting these values in the formula of median we get:

$m=l+\left( \frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f} \right)\times h$

$m=55+\left( \frac{15-13}{6} \right)\times 5$

$m=55+\left( \frac{10}{6} \right)$

$m=56.67$

Hence, median weight is $56.67$ kg.

## FAQs on NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 14 Statistics (Ex 14.3) Exercise 14.3

1. What do you Mean by Median, Mean, and Mode?

Mean:-  It refers to average. Mean is the average of a given set of data. We can calculate by dividing the sum of all values by several values.

Mean = (n1 + n2 +........n10)/10.

Median:- Simply, the middle term of the set is known as the set’s median. If it has an even number of terms in the set, the average of two middle terms is the median.

Mode:- The highest repetitive term of the set is called the mode of the set.

2. Explain the Relationship Between Mean, Median, and Mode?

As these three are statistical measures, all are interrelated but can't say dependent all the time. The relation can be understood easily by plotting graphs. Apart from that, after several observations, it is clear that the difference between mean and mode is equal to the thrice of the difference between mean and median. It can be represented as,

Mean – Mode = 3 (Mean – Median).

We will also get a symmetrical curve when we plot the graph while showing the relation between them. It also considers frequency distribution on the other side.
