Question : The following number of goals was scored by a team in a series of 10 matches: 2,
3, 4, 5, 0, 1, 3, 3, 4, 3
Find the mean, median and mode of these scores.
Answer:
The number of goals scored by the team is
2, 3, 4, 5, 0, 1, 3, 3, 4, 3
Arranging the number of goals in ascending order, 0, 1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5
The number of observations is 10, which is an even number. Therefore, median score will be the mean of 10/2 i.e., 5th and 10/2+1 ascending or descending order.
i.e., 6 th observation while arranged in Mode of data is the observation with the maximum frequency in data.
Therefore, the mode score of data is 3 as it has the maximum frequency as 4 in the data.
Question : The following observations have been arranged in ascending order. If the median of the data is 63, find the value of x.
29, 32, 48, 50, x, x + 2, 72, 78, 84, 95
Answer: It can be observed that the total number of observations in the given data is 10 (even number). Therefore, the median of this data will be the mean of 10/2 i.e., 5th and 10/2 +1 i.e., 6 th observation.
