Question

For the given frequency distribution match the column -I with Column-II.
Class30-3535-4040-4545-5050-5555-6060-65
Frequency1416182318 8 3
h = width of the class interval c = cumulative frequency
f = frequency of the class interval to which median belongs l1= lower limit of the median class interval

Solution













Class



35-35



35-40



40-45



45-50



50-55



55-60



60-65



Frequency



14



16



18



23

8



3



Cumulative Frequency



14



30



48

100 = N




Now, N2=1002=50
The median class is the class with C.F. just greater than 50, which is 4550 and the median will lie in this class.
Hence,
frequency of the class interval to which median belongs f=23
Cumulative frequency =48
Lower limit of the median class interval =l1=45
Now, median l1+[N2cff]×h
where,

Here, $ { l }_{ 1 }= $ lower limit of the median class


$ f
= $ frequency of the median class


$ h
= $ width (size) of the median class


$ cf
= $ cumulative frequency of the class preceding the median class


So, Median =45+[10024823]×5=45.4


Hence, A4,B6,C2,D1
