Answer:
median of the given data is 56.6
Step-by-step explanation:
class interval frequency(f) c.f(cumulative frequency)
40-45 2 2
45-50 3 5
50-55 8 13
55-60 6 19
60-65 6 25
65-70 3 28
70-75 2 30
median=
where, l is the lower limit of the median class
f is the frequency of the median class
h is the magnitude of the median class
c is the c.f of the class preceding the median class
Here, N/2 = 30/2 = 15
cumulative frequency just greater than 15 is 19
corresponding class is 55-60
thus median class= 55-60
l= 55, h= 5, f=6, c=13
using the formula we get median = 55+ 5/6(15- 13)
=55+( 5*2)/6
=55+ 1.6
⇒median = 56.6
therefore, the median of the given data is 56.6
