Question

Find the median where mean and mode are given as $10$ and $7$.

• A. 10
• B. 9
• C. 7
• D. 8

Answer 1

The correct option is B 9

Applying the relation between mean, median and mode formula,
Mode $=3$ Median $-2$ Mean
Therefore, Median $=$ $\frac{Mode+2Mean}{3}$
$=$ $\frac{7+2\times 10}{3}$
$=$ $\frac{27}{3}$
Median $=9$
