Question

Median and mean weight of the students of a class are 35.83 and 37.06 respectively. Calculate the mode.

Answer 1

Given,

Median (M) = 35.83
Mean $\left(\overline{\mathrm{X}}\right)$ = 37.06
Mode = Z

We know,
Z = 3M − 2$\left(\overline{\mathrm{X}}\right)$

or, Z = 3(35.83) − 2(37.06)
or, Z = 107.49 − 74.12
$\Rightarrow$ Z = 33.37

Hence, the mode weight of the students of a class is 33.37 kgs.
