21−28 11 25

28−35 0 25

35−42 16 41

42−49 9 50

Sum =50

Where cf= cumulative frequency

Median =L+

Here:

N=50

N/2=25

Here cumulative frequency is 25

Median class =21−28

So, L=21, h=7, f=11 and

cf=cf of preceding class i.e 14

Substitute all the value in the above formula, we get

Median =21+{7×(25−14)/11}

=28
