The number of challans that are issued per day by the traffic police for traffic violations committed by people at a certain road over two weeks is as follows:
First week: `0, 5, 10, 6, 3, 4, 7`
Second week: `2, 6, 5, 3, 7, 5, 0`
Find mean, median, and mode of the number of challans issued per day for each week.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will calculate the mean, median, and mode for the number of challans issued per day for both weeks separately. ### Step 1: Organizing the Data **First Week Data:** 0, 5, 10, 6, 3, 4, 7 **Second Week Data:** 2, 6, 5, 3, 7, 5, 0 **Arrange the data in ascending order:** - **First Week (Ascending Order):** 0, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10 - **Second Week (Ascending Order):** 0, 2, 3, 5, 5, 6, 7 ### Step 2: Calculate Mean **Mean Formula:** Mean = (Sum of all observations) / (Number of observations) #### First Week: - **Sum of Observations:** 0 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 10 = 35 - **Number of Observations:** 7 **Mean for First Week:** Mean = 35 / 7 = 5 #### Second Week: - **Sum of Observations:** 0 + 2 + 3 + 5 + 5 + 6 + 7 = 28 - **Number of Observations:** 7 **Mean for Second Week:** Mean = 28 / 7 = 4 ### Step 3: Calculate Mode **Mode Definition:** Mode is the number that appears most frequently in the data set. #### First Week: - **Observations:** 0, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10 - **Frequency:** No number repeats. **Mode for First Week:** No mode (since all numbers appear only once). #### Second Week: - **Observations:** 0, 2, 3, 5, 5, 6, 7 - **Frequency:** The number 5 appears twice. **Mode for Second Week:** Mode = 5 ### Step 4: Calculate Median **Median Definition:** The median is the middle value when the data is arranged in ascending order. If the number of observations is odd, the median is the middle number. #### First Week: - **Observations:** 0, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10 - **Number of Observations:** 7 (odd) - **Median Position:** (7 + 1) / 2 = 4th term **Median for First Week:** 4th term = 5 #### Second Week: - **Observations:** 0, 2, 3, 5, 5, 6, 7 - **Number of Observations:** 7 (odd) - **Median Position:** (7 + 1) / 2 = 4th term **Median for Second Week:** 4th term = 5 ### Final Results - **First Week:** - Mean = 5 - Mode = No mode - Median = 5 - **Second Week:** - Mean = 4 - Mode = 5 - Median = 5
