The formula to calculate median using cf is?
Answers
Answer:
How do you Calculate Median of Grouped Frequency Distribution
Median of Grouped Frequency Distribution
Median = ℓ + \frac{{\frac{N}{2} – C}}{f}\,\, \times \,\,h
where,
ℓ = lower limit of median class interval
C = cumulative frequency preceding to the median class frequency
f = frequency of the class interval to which median belongs
h = width of the class interval
N = f1 + f2 + f3 + … + fn.
Working rule to find median
Step 1: Prepare a table containing less than type cumulative frequency with the help of given frequencies.
Step 2 : Find out the cumulative frequency to which \frac{N}{2} belongs. Class-interval of this cumulative frequency is the median class-interval.
Step 3 : Find out the frequency f and lower limit l of this median class.
Step 4 : Find the width h of the median class interval
Step 5 : Find the cumulative frequency C of the class preceding the median class.
Step 6 : Apply the formula,
Median = ℓ + \frac{{\frac{N}{2} – C}}{f}\,\, \times \,\,h to find the median
