Formula
1. Arithematic mean `bar x = (sum x)/n`
|
2. Median M = `((n+1)/2)^(th)` value of observation in ascending order
|
3. Mode is that value of the observation which occurs maximum number of times.
|
Examples
1. Calculate Mean, Median, Mode from the following data
3,13,11,15,5,4,2,3,2Solution:Mean `bar x = (sum x)/n`
`=(3 + 13 + 11 + 15 + 5 + 4 + 2 + 3 + 2)/9`
`=58/9`
`=6.4444`
Median :
Observations in the ascending order are :
`2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 11, 13, 15 `
Here, `n=9` is odd.
`M=` value of `((n+1)/2)^(th)` observation
`=` value of `((9+1)/2)^(th)` observation
`=` value of `5^(th)` observation
`=4`
Mode :
In the given data, the observation `2,3` occurs maximum number of times (`2`)
`:. Z = 2,3`
2. Calculate Mean, Median, Mode from the following data
85,96,76,108,85,80,100,85,70,95Solution:Mean `bar x = (sum x)/n`
`=(85 + 96 + 76 + 108 + 85 + 80 + 100 + 85 + 70 + 95)/10`
`=880/10`
`=88`
Median :
Observations in the ascending order are :
`70, 76, 80, 85, 85, 85, 95, 96, 100, 108 `
Here, `n=10` is even.
`M=(text{Value of } (n/2)^(th) text{ observation} + text{Value of } (n/2 + 1)^(th) text{ observation})/2`
`=(text{Value of } (10/2)^(th) text{ observation} + text{Value of } (10/2 + 1)^(th) text{ observation})/2`
`=(text{Value of }5^(th) text{ observation} + text{Value of }6^(th) text{ observation})/2`
`=(85 + 85)/2`
`=85`
Mode :
In the given data, the observation `85` occurs maximum number of times (`3`)
`:. Z = 85`
