Statistics
1.The median of a data can graphically be found from
(i) an ogive,
(ii) a histogram,
(iii) a frequency curve,
(iv) a bar graph.
2.The relationship among the three measures of central tendency i.e., median, mode and mean can be represented as
- The median of a data is 5. The mean of the same data is 7. Find the mode of the data.
- What is the median of a dataset whose mean and mode are 36 and 18 respectively?
- The following table shows frequency distributions of a few observations. The mode of the observations is 42. The missing frequency p is not the greatest frequency. Find the value of p?
