Question

28. Calculate the mode from the following data: marks 10-20,20-30,30-40,40-50,50-60,60-70, frequency,8,11,9,25,12,16


​

Answer 1

Answer:

Maximum class frequency is 45.

the class corresponding to Maximum class frequency is the modal class.

So, Modal class =30−40

Lower limit =I=30

Modal class size =h=10

Frequency of class preceding the modal class =f

0

=35

Frequency of the modal class f

1

=45

Frequency of class succeeding the modal =f

=25

Mode formula is given by,

Mode =I+(
