Question

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

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

Answer 1

The correct option is A $8\lambda$

For a moderately skewed distributiion,

Mean$-$Mode$=3$(Mean-Median)

So, $9\lambda -6\lambda =3(9\lambda -$median$)$

So, median $=8\lambda$
