2. Example (X & Frequency)





1. Calculate Mean deviation about mode from the following grouped data
XFrequency
103
1112
1218
1312
143


Solution:
`x`
`(1)`
`f`
`(2)`
`|x-Z|=|x-12|`
`(3)`
`f*|x-Z|`
`(4)=(2)xx(3)`
10326
1112112
121800
1312112
14326
------------
--`n=48`--`sum f*|x-Z|=36`


Mode :
the frequency of observation `12` is maximum (`18`)

`:. Z = 12`

Mean deviation of Mode
`delta bar x = (sum f*|x - Z|)/n`

`delta bar x = 36/48`

`delta bar x = 0.75`


Coefficient of Mean deviation `=(delta bar x)/(bar x)`

`=0.75/12`

`=0.0625`


2. Calculate Mean deviation about mode from the following grouped data
XFrequency
01
15
210
36
43


Solution:
`x`
`(1)`
`f`
`(2)`
`|x-Z|=|x-2|`
`(3)`
`f*|x-Z|`
`(4)=(2)xx(3)`
0122
1515
21000
3616
4326
------------
--`n=25`--`sum f*|x-Z|=19`


Mode :
the frequency of observation `2` is maximum (`10`)

`:. Z = 2`

Mean deviation of Mode
`delta bar x = (sum f*|x - Z|)/n`

`delta bar x = 19/25`

`delta bar x = 0.76`


Coefficient of Mean deviation `=(delta bar x)/(bar x)`

`=0.76/2`

`=0.38`
