Given:-

  • A survey regarding the height (in cm) of 51 girls of class X of a school was conducted

hight \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: no \: of \: girls \\ less \: than \:  140 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  4 \\ less \: than \:145 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 11 \\ less \: than \:150 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 29 \\ less \: than \:155 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 40 \\ less \: than \: \: 160 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: \:  46 \\ less \: than \:165 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 51

To find:-

  • median

Solution:-

hight \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: c.f  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: no \: of \: student\\ 135 - 140 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  4 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 4 \\ 140 - 145 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 11 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 7\\ 145 -  \:150 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 29  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 18\\ 150 - 155 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 40  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 22\\  155 - 160 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: \:  46  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 24\\ 160 - 165 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 51 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 17

Here,

n = 51 \\ median =  \frac{51}{2}  \\  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  = 25.5

median = 145 - 150 \\  \\l = 145 \\ cf = 11 \\ f =29 \\ h = 5 \\  \\ median = l +   \frac{ \frac{n}{2} - c.f }{f}   \times h \\  \\ median = 145 +  \frac{25.5 - 11}{29}  \times 5 \\  \\ median = 145 +  \frac{14.5}{29}  \times 5 \\  \\ median = 145 + 2.5 \\  \\ median = 147.5
