\(\begin{array}{c|c} \text{Class Interval} & 1 - 5 & 6 - 10 & 11 - 15 & 16 - 20 & 21 - 25 \ \hline Frequency & 6 & 15 & 20 & 7 & 2\end{array}\)
Estimate the median of the frequency distribution above
Estimate the median of the frequency distribution above
A
10\(\frac{1}{2}\)
B
11\(\frac{1}{2}\)
C
12
D
13
correct option: c
Median = L + [\(\frac{\frac{N}{2} - f}{fm}\)]h
N = Sum of frequencies
L = lower class boundary of median class
f = sum of all frequencies below L
fm = frequency of modal class and
h = class width of median class
Median = 11 + [\(\frac{\frac{50}{2} - 21}{20}\)]5
= 11 + (\(\frac{25 - 21}{20}\))5
= 11 + (\(\frac{(4)}{20}\))
11 + 1 = 12
N = Sum of frequencies
L = lower class boundary of median class
f = sum of all frequencies below L
fm = frequency of modal class and
h = class width of median class
Median = 11 + [\(\frac{\frac{50}{2} - 21}{20}\)]5
= 11 + (\(\frac{25 - 21}{20}\))5
= 11 + (\(\frac{(4)}{20}\))
11 + 1 = 12
