Topic: Measures of central tendency

1. The mean age of 33 students of a class is 13 years. If one girl leaves the class, the mean

becomes years. What is the age of the girl ?

(b) In a class test, the mean of marks scored by a class of 40 students was calculated as 18.2.
Later on, it was detected that marks of one student was wrongly copied as 21 instead of 29.
Find the correct mean.

2. Find the mean of 25 given numbers when the mean of 10 of them is 13 and the mean of the
remaining numbers is 18.

3. The weights of 50 apples were recorded as given below. Calculate the mean weight, to the
nearest gram, by step deviation method

Weight in grams 80-85 85-90 90-95 95-100 100-105 105-110 110-115

No. Of apples 5 8 10 12 8 4 3

3. If the mean of the following distribution is 7.5, nd the missing frequency ” f “.

Variate 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

Frequency 20 17 f 10 8 6 7 6

4.
a. Find the median of the following set of numbers : 9, 0, 2, 8, 5, 3, 5, 4, 1, 5, 2, 7
b. For the following set of numbers, nd the median: 10, 75, 3, 81, 17, 27, 4, 48, 12, 47, 9, 15.

5. The median of the observations 11, 12, 14, (x – 2), (x + 4), (x + 9), 32, 38, 47 arranged in
ascending order is 24. Find the value of x and hence nd the mean.

6 Find the median for the following distribution.

No. Of workers 12 20 30 38 24 16 12 8

Using a graph paper, draw an ogive for the above distributions and estimate:
a. The median wage of the workers
b. The percentage of workers who earn more than $45 a day

8. The daily wages in (rupees of) 19 workers are


41, 21, 38, 27, 31, 45, 23, 26, 29, 30, 28, 25, 35, 42, 47, 53, 29, 31, 35.

nd :
(i) the median
(ii) lower quartile
(iii) upper quartile
(iv) inter quartile range

10. The marks of 10 students of a class in an examination arranged in ascending order
are as follows: 13, 35, 43, 46, x, x +4, 55, 61,71, 80
If the median marks is 48, nd the value of x. Hence, nd the mode of the given data

11. Draw a histogram for the following frequency distribution and nd the mode from the
graph :

Class 0-5 5-10 10-15 15-20 20-25 25-30

Frequency 2 5 18 14 8 5
