i = lower limit of the median class = 15
n =∑F = total number of frequency = 15
So, the median class is 15-20
Cf = cumulative frequency of the class preceding the median class = 20
f = frequency of the median class = 8
h = class width = 5
Therefore, Median = l+(

Answer:
For the class interval 0-5
Mid Value = 0+5 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 5 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 2.5
For the class interval 5-10
Mid Value = 5+10 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 15 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 7.5
For the class interval 10-15
Mid Value = 10+15 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 25 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 12.5
For the class interval 15-20
Mid Value = 15+20 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 35 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 17.5
For the class interval 20-25
Mid Value = 20 + 25 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 45 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 22.5
For the class interval 25-30
Mid Value = 25+30 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 75 ÷ 2
Mid Value = 37.5
