ASSERTION REASON BASED QUESTIONS
Directions: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the

(b) Assertion and Reason both are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
(c) Assertion is correct but Reason is false
(d) Assertion is false but Reason is correct
(e) Both assertion and reason are wrong.
1. Assertion: If the value of mode and mean is 60 and 66 respectively, then the value of median is 64.
Reason: Median = (mode + 2 mean)/2
2. Assertion: The arithmetic mean of the following given frequency distribution table is 13.81.

Reason: x̅ = ∑ fi xi / ∑fi
