  • `x_k + h · {((f_k - f_(k - 1)))/((2f_k - f_(k - 1) - f_(k + 1)))}`

  • `x_k + h · {((f_k - f_(k - 1)))/((f_k - 2f_(k - 1) - f_(k + 1)))}`

  • `x_k + h · {((f_k - f_(k - 1)))/((f_k - f_(k - 1) - 2f_(k + 1)))}`

Solution

`bb(x_k + h · {((f_k - f_(k - 1)))/((2f_k - f_(k - 1) - f_(k + 1)))})`

Explanation:

For a grouped (continuous) frequency distribution the mode is given by Mode = lower limit of modal class + `h * (f_"modal" - f_"prev")/(2 f_"modal" - f_"prev" - f_"next")`.

Identifying xk as the lower limit, h as class width, fk as modal frequency, `f_{k - 1}` the preceding frequency and `f_{k + 1}` the succeeding frequency gives the expression.
