उत्तर
i.
| Class interval | Frequency |
| 0 – 10 | 2 |
| 10 – 20 | 5 |
| 20 – 30 | 8 |
| 30 – 40 | 4 |
| 40 – 50 | 6 |
ii.
| Class interval | Frequency (f) | Mean value (x) | fx |
| 0 – 10 | 2 | 5 | 10 |
| 10 – 20 | 5 | 15 | 75 |
| 20 – 30 | 8 | 25 | 200 |
| 30 – 40 | 4 | 35 | 140 |
| 40 – 50 | 6 | 45 | 270 |
| `sumf = 25` | `sumf = 695` |
∴ Mean = `(sumfx)/(sumf)`
= `695/25`
= 27.8
iii. Here the maximum frequency is 8 which is corresponding to class 20 – 30.
Hence, the modal class is 20 – 30.
