Question

Find the mode of a distribution whose mean is 8.32 and the median is 8.05

Answer 1

Answer:

Mode = 7.51

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that mean of distribution is 8.32 and the median is 8.05 .

From empirical formula, we know that;

         (Mean - Mode) = 3(Mean - Median)

           3*Median = Mode + 2*Mean

Putting given values in above equation we get;

           3 * 8.05 = Mode + 2 * 8.32

            Mode = 24.15 - 16.64 = 7.51

Therefore, mode of a distribution is 7.51 .

Answer 2

Answer:

3*Median = Mode + 2*Mean

Putting given values in above equation we get;

          3 * 8.05 = Mode + 2 * 8.32

           Mode = 24.15 - 16.64 = 7.51

Therefore, mode of a distribution is 7.51 .
