Open in App
Solution
For the calculation of median, we need to prepare the cumulative frequency distribution (less than type)
table as shown:
No. of packages
Frequency
f
i
Cumulative frequency (less than type)
10-20
2

20-30

30-40
16

40-50
24

50-60

80
60-70
20
100
Total
frequency
=
∑
f
i
=
N
=
100
∴
N
2
=
100
2
=
50
So
,
cumulative
frequency
should
be
just
greater
than
or
equal
to
50
,
i
.
e
.
50
.
Therefore
,
the
median
class
will
be
40
-
50
.
Median

L

Here
,
L
=
lower
limit
of
the
median
class
=

c

f
.
=
cumulative
frequency
of
the
class
preceeding
the
median
clas
s
=

h
=
width
of
the
median
class
=
10
f
=
frequency
of
the
median
class
=
24
∴
Median
=
40
+
50

=
40

.
84
=
49
.
84
≈
50
∴
Median
number
of
packages
received
per
day
by
the
post
office
is
50
.
