If in a moderately asymmetrical distribution the mode and the mean of the data are `6 lamda " and" 9 lamda`, respectively, then the median is

A

`8 lamda`

B

`7 lamda`

C

`6 lamda`

D

`5 lamda`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
For a moderately skewed distribution,
Mode=3 median-2 mean
`implies 6 lamda=3 " median" -18lamda implies " median"=8lamda`
