Answers
Given: The length of leaves of a plant are represented in the form of an data,
Median = 46
To Find: 1. 'p'
2. 'q'
3. 'p+q'
4. Frequency of median class
5. Median Class
Step-by-step explanation:
Class Interval Frequency Cumulative Frequency
10-20 12 12
20-30 30 42
30-40 p 42+p
40-50 65 107+p
50-60 q 107+p+q
60-70 25 132+p+q
70-80 18 150+p+q
N = 150+p+q
N = 230
Median Class is 40-50
Median =
where l = Lower limit of the median class
cf = cumulative frequency of the class preceding the median class
f = frequency of the median class
h = class size
i.e., l = 40, cf = 42 + p, f = 65, h = 10
1. 'p' = 34
2. N = 230
150 + p + q = 230 (putting the value of 'p' from 1.)
150 + 34 + q = 230
184 + q = 230 (taking 184 to the other side )
q = 230 - 184
q = 46
3. p + q = 34 + 46
p + q = 80
4. Frequency of the median class = 65
5. Median Class = 40-50
