QUESTION NO 2

The following table is constructed from the weights (recorded to the nearest pound) of 40 male
students of a college. Calculate the mean and median of the distribution.

Weight Frequency
(pounds)
118-126 3
127-135 5
136-144 9
145-153 12
154-162 5
163-171 4
172-180 2

ANSWER

∑ꬵX/∑f

Weight (pounds) Frequency Mid-point(X) FX


118-126 3 122 366
127-135 5 131 655
136-144 9 140 1260
145-153 12 149 1788
154-162 5 158 790
163-171 4 167 668
172-180 2 176 352
∑f = 40 ∑ꬵX =5879

That ∑ꬵX/∑f
5879/40

146.975

Median = I+h/f(n/2-c)

I = lower class boundary median class

H= class interval

F = frequency of median class

N= total number of observation

C = cumulative frequency of class preceding median class

Weight (pounds) CLASS BOUNDARIES Frequency (F) Cumulative (F)


118-126 117.5-126.5 3 3
127-135 126.5-135.5 5 5+3 = 8
136-144 135.5-144.5 9 9+8 = 17
145-153 144.5-153.5 12 29
154-162 153.5-162.5 5 34
163-171 162.5-171.5 4 38
172-180 171.5-180.5 2 40

= 144.5+9/12(40/2-17)

= 144.5 + 9 / 12 (3)

= 144.5 + 2.25

= 146.75 Ans
