Question

The mode for the following frequency distribution

  1. 5    
  2. 5.28    
  3. 6    
  4. 6.29    

hintHint:

Mode formula :
Mode = l subscript o space plus open parentheses fraction numerator f subscript 1 space end subscript minus space f subscript 0 over denominator 2 f subscript 1 space minus space f subscript 0 space minus space f subscript 2 end fraction close parentheses cross times h
Where,
  • l subscript o is the lower limit of the modal class
  • h is the size of the class interval
  • f subscript 1 is the frequency of the modal class
  • f subscript 0 is the frequency of the class preceding the modal class
  • f subscript 2 is the frequency of the class succeeding the modal class

The correct answer is: 6.29


     Given :

    Steps for calculating Mode :
    Step 1: Find the class interval with the maximum frequency. This is also called modal class.
    From the table above Class interval (4 - 8) has maximum frequency of 8.
    Thus, modal class is 4-8
    Step 2: Find the size of the class. This is calculated by subtracting the upper limit from the lower limit.
    Size of class (h)= Upper limit - lower limit = 8-4 = 4
    Step 3: Calculate the mode using the mode formula:
    l subscript o space plus open parentheses fraction numerator f subscript 1 space end subscript minus space f subscript 0 over denominator 2 f subscript 1 space minus space f subscript 0 space minus space f subscript 2 end fraction close parentheses space cross times h
    Where,
    • l subscript o is the lower limit of the modal class
    • h is the size of the class interval
    • f subscript 1 is the frequency of the modal class
    • f subscript 0 is the frequency of the class preceding the modal class
    • f subscript 2 is the frequency of the class succeeding the modal class
    here,
    l subscript o = 4 ,
    h = 4 ,
    f subscript 1 = 8 ,
    f subscript 0 = 4 and
    f subscript 2 = 5
    Substituting these values
    M o d e space equals space 4 space plus open parentheses fraction numerator 8 minus space 4 over denominator 2 cross times 8 space minus space 4 space minus space 5 end fraction close parentheses cross times 4 space approximately equal to space 6.29
