Solution

The correct option is D 1, 2 and 3
Mean = Median (in symmetric distribution)
Range = (Max. value – Min. value)
And sum of areas of rectangles in the histogram is always equal to the total area bounded by frequency polygon and the horizontal axis.
This implies all 3 statements are correct.
