Question

Assertion (A): Median marks of students in a class test is 16. It means half of the class got marks less than 16.

Reason (R): Median divides the distribution in two equal parts.

विकल्प

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

• Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.

• Assertion (A) is false, but Reason (R) is true.

Answer 1

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

Explanation:

We know that the median is the middle value of a data set when it’s arranged in order.

Therefore, the Assertion is true.

The reason is correct because the median divides the distribution into two equal parts. It divides the higher half from the lower half of the data.

Therefore, Reason is true.
