120 – 14013014182026

160 – 1801706100040
180 – 20019010190050
N = 50Σfx = 7260

We know that,

Mean $= Σfx / N$

$= 7260/ 50$

$= 145.2$

Then,

We have, $N = 50$

⇒ N/2 $= 50/2 $= 25$

So, the cumulative frequency just greater than N/2 is $26$, then the median class is $120 – 140$

Such that $l = 120, h = 140 – 120 = 20, f = 14, F = 12$

$= 120 + 260/14$

$= 120 + 18.57$

$= 138.57$

From the data, its observed that maximum frequency is $14$, so the corresponding class $120 – 140$ is the modal class

And,

$l = 120, h = 140 – 120 = 20, f = 14, f= 12, f= 8$

$= 120 + 5$R D Sharma Solutions For Class 10 Maths Chapter 7 Statistics ex 7.5 - 12

$= 125$

Therefore, mean $= 145.2$, median $= 138.57$ and mode $= 125$
