The correct Answer is:
To find the median of the given frequency distribution, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Create a Cumulative Frequency Table We will first create a cumulative frequency table from the given frequency distribution. | Class | Frequency (fi) | Cumulative Frequency (CF) | |----------|----------------|---------------------------| | 60-70 | 5 | 5 | | 70-80 | 15 | 5 + 15 = 20 | | 80-90 | 20 | 20 + 20 = 40 | | 90-100 | 30 | 40 + 30 = 70 | | 100-110 | 20 | 70 + 20 = 90 | | 110-120 | 8 | 90 + 8 = 98 | ### Step 2: Find the Total Frequency (N) Now, we will find the total frequency \( N \) by adding all the frequencies. \[ N = 5 + 15 + 20 + 30 + 20 + 8 = 98 \] ### Step 3: Determine the Median Class To find the median, we need to find \( \frac{N}{2} \): \[ \frac{N}{2} = \frac{98}{2} = 49 \] Now, we look for the cumulative frequency that is greater than or equal to 49. From the cumulative frequency table, we see that: - The cumulative frequency just before 49 is 40 (for the class 80-90). - The cumulative frequency that is greater than 49 is 70 (for the class 90-100). Thus, the median class is **90-100**. ### Step 4: Apply the Median Formula We will use the median formula: \[ \text{Median} = L + \left( \frac{\frac{N}{2} - F}{f} \right) \times h \] Where: - \( L \) = lower boundary of the median class = 90 - \( N \) = total frequency = 98 - \( F \) = cumulative frequency of the class preceding the median class = 40 (for class 80-90) - \( f \) = frequency of the median class = 30 (for class 90-100) - \( h \) = width of the median class = 10 (from 90 to 100) Substituting these values into the formula: \[ \text{Median} = 90 + \left( \frac{49 - 40}{30} \right) \times 10 \] Calculating further: \[ \text{Median} = 90 + \left( \frac{9}{30} \right) \times 10 \] \[ \text{Median} = 90 + 3 = 93 \] ### Final Answer The median of the given frequency distribution is **93**. ---
