The document is an instruction for a mathematics assignment that involves constructing a frequency distribution table (FDT) from test score data of 50 students. It provides the test scores and instructs the student to: 1) Determine the range, number of classes, and class size for the FDT 2) Construct the FDT with appropriate columns including class boundaries, frequencies, cumulative frequencies, and relative frequencies 3) Calculate the mean, median, and mode from the FDT as the three measures of central tendency.

GNED03: Mathematics in The Modern World

OBA5: Data Management (Part 1)

INSTRUCTION: Using all the given information and/or the data below, construct the
FDT by showing the step-by-step process and complete solution.

On the table below are scores of 50 students in a 40 - item test in English.

11 30 33 18 38 12 35 33 34 28
40 38 25 15 35 36 36 19 30 29
38 40 19 33 25 38 36 18 29 24
36 40 21 34 22 35 10 23 28 25
33 36 10 36 16 22 16 25 22 25

A. Construct a Frequency Distribution Table including all informative columns.

1. Determine the range (R) of the numerical data.


R = Highest data value - Lowest data value
R = 40 – 10 = 30

2. Determine the number of classes K to which the data are to be grouped using the Sturges’
Approximation;
K = 1 + 3.322 Log N;
= 1 + 3.322 Log 50
= 6.64 or 7

3. Determine the class size (C)


C=R/K
= 30/7
= 4.28 or approximately 5
4. Determine the lower limit of the class.
Lowest value = Lower limit = 10
5. Construct the FDT

35 – 39 13 37 34.5 – 39.5 47 16 26 481
40 – 44 3 42 39.5 – 44.5 50 3 6 126
N= 50 100 Σ = 1405

B. Find the value of the three measures of central tendency

1. MEAN
MG = 1405 / 50

= 28.1

2. MEDIAN

The median class is the interval 25 – 29.

Where: Lmd = 24.5 fb = 17 N = 50

C = 5 fmd = 9

MdG = 24.5 + 5 [(50/2) – 17)/ 9]

= 24.5 + 5 [(25 – 17)/ 9]

= 24. 5 + 5 [(8/9)]

= 24. 5 + 4.44

= 28.94

3. MODE

The modal class is the interval 35 – 39.


Where: Lmo = 34.5 fb = 8 c = 5
fa = 3 fmo = 13

MoG = 34.5 + 5 [(13-8)/ 2(13) – 3 – 8]

= 34.5 + 5 [ 5/ 26 – 3 – 8]

= 34.5 + 5 (5/15) = 34.5 + 1.66


= 36.17
