find mean,median and mode of birthdays of at least 12 friends of your class.
Answers
Birthdays are
11, 12, 18, 15, 02, 17 , 14 ,0 3 , 28, 30, 29, 10
First we have to calculate
•mean :-
.
=15.75
Mean, Median and Mode of the taken ages are 12.66, 12 and 12 respectively
Given problem :
Find mean,median and mode of birthdays of at least 12 friends of your class
Solution:
Let the ages are 12, 11, 13, 12, 14, 12, 13, 11, 10, 12, 15, 11
Calculating mean of ages:
As we know
Mean of a data = Sum of observations / No. of observations
Sum of ages = 12 + 11 + 13 + 12 + 14 + 12 + 13 + 11 + 10 + 12 + 15 + 11 = 146
No. of ages = 12
Mean = 146/12 = 12.66
Mean of ages = 12.66
Calculating median of ages:
To find the median of the data
Arrange the given observations in ascending order
= 10, 11, 11, 11, 12, 12, 12, 12, 13, 13, 14, 15
Here, No. of ages n = 12 (even number)
The formula for median of data when No of observations is even number
Median of data = [(n/2)th term + ((n/2) + 1)th term]/2
Median of data = [(12/2)th term + ((12/2) + 1)th term]/2
= [6th term + 7th term]/2
= (12+12)/2 = 24/2 = 12
Median of Ages = 12
Calculating Mode of ages:
Mode of a data = Most frequently occurred observation
In take ages the frequently occured observation is 12
Mode of ages = 12
Therefore,
Mean, Median and Mode of the taken ages are 12.66, 12 and 12 respectively
