Question

If in a moderately skewed distribution the values of mode and mean are $6\lambda$ and $9\lambda$ respectively, then the value of the median is

• A. $8\lambda$
• B. $7\lambda$
• C. $6\lambda$
• D. $5\lambda$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $8\lambda$

Using, Mode $=$ 3. Median $-$ 2. Mean
$\Rightarrow 6\lambda =$ 3.Median $-2.9\lambda$
$\therefore$ Median $=8\lambda$
