Ex14.4, 1
The following number of goals was scored by a team in a series of 10 matches: 2, 3, 4, 5, 0, 1, 3, 3, 4, 3
Find the mean, median and mode of these scores.
Mean
Mean of data = (๐๐ข๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๐ก๐๐๐๐ )/(๐๐ข๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๐ก๐๐๐๐ )
= (2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 0 + 1 + 3 + 3 + 4 + 3)/10
= 28/10 = 2.8 goals
Median
Arranging the number of goals in ascending order,
0, 1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5
Number of observations = n = 10 (even number)
Median = (๐/2)"th obs. + " (๐/2 +1)"th obs. " /2
= (10/2)"th obs. + " (10/2 + 1)"th obs. " /2
= (5๐กโ ๐๐๐ .+6๐กโ ๐๐๐ .)/2
= (3 + 3)/2
= 6/2
= 3
Mode
0, 1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5
Here,
0 occurs 1 time,
1 occurs 1 time,
3 occurs 4 times
4 occurs 2 times
5 occurs 1 time
Since 3 occurs maximum number of times
Mode = 3
