VALUE BASED QUESTIONS
Q1. The following table gives the percentage distribution of female students in various schools of rural areas of various states and UTs of India who are getting freeship.
(i) Find the mean percentage of female students getting freeship.
(ii) Which mathematical concept is used in the above problem?
(iii) By giving freeship to girls/women students, which value is depicted by various states and UTs?
Sol. (i) We find xi (class marks) of each class and put them in the following table :
Here, we take a = 50, h = 10 and di = xi – 50
ui = xi - 5010
Putting di and ui in the following table :
∵ From the table, we have :
Σfi = 35, Σfixi = 1390,
Σfidi = -360, Σfiui = -36
⇒ x̄ = ΣfixiΣfi = 139035 = 39.71 [Using direct method]
OR
Using the step deviation method, we get:
x̄ = a + (Σfiui)Σfi × h = 50 + (-36)35 × 10 = 39.71
Thus, required percentage of women students = 39.71
(ii) Statistics.
(iii) Promoting women education.
