 term 
Median = 20 
Here, clearly, 20 occurs most number of times, i.e., 4 times. Therefore, the mode of the 
given data is 20. 
Yes, the median and mode of the given data are the same. 
 
8. Calculate the mean and median for the following data: 
 
 
 
 
 
    
 
Marks 10 11 12 13 14 16 19 20 
Number of students 3 5 4 5 2 3 2 1 
Using empirical formula, find its mode. 
 
Solution: 
Calculation of mean 
Mean = S f
i 
x
i
/ S f
i 
= 332/25 
= 13.28 
Here, n = 25, which is an odd number. Therefore, 
Therefore median = ((n+1)/2)
th
 term 
Median = value of 13
th
 term 
Median = 13 
Now, by using empirical formula we have, 
Mode = 3Median – 2 Mean 
Mode = 3 (13) – 2 (13.28) 
Mode = 39 – 26.56 
Mode = 12.44. 
 
9. The following table shows the weights of 12 persons. 
Weight (in kg) 48 50 52 54 58 
Number of persons 4 3 2 2 1 
Find the median and mean weights. Using empirical relation, calculate its mode. 
 
Solution:

48 4 192 
50 3 150 
52 2 104 
54 2 108 
58 1 58 
Total S f
i
 = 12 S f
i 
x
i
 = 612 
Calculation of mean 
Mean = S f
i 
x
i
/ S f
i 
= 612/12 
= 51 kg 
Here n = 12 
 
 
 
 
 
    
 
Therefore median = (n/2)
th
 term + ((n + 1)/2)
th
 term 
Median = (value of 6
th
 term + value of 7
th
 term)/2 
= (50 + 50)/2 
= 50 
Now by empirical formula we have,  
Now, 
Mode = 3 Median – 2 Mean 
Mode = 3 x 50 – 2 x 51 
Mode = 150 – 102 
Mode = 48 kg. 
Thus, Mean = 51 kg, Median = 50 kg and Mode = 48 kg.
