Question

Fill In the Blanks

The mean and mode of a data are 24 and 12 respectively, then median of the data is ___________.

Answer 1

Mean of the data = 24

Mode of the data = 12

We know

Mode = 3Median − 2Mean

⇒ 12 = 3Median − 2 × 24

⇒ 3Median = 48 + 12 = 60

⇒ Median = $\frac{60}{3}$ = 20

Thus, the median of data is 20.

The mean and mode of a data are 24 and 12 respectively, then median of the data is ___20___.
