Consider the following frequency distribution:

x     f

8     6

5     4

6     5

10    8

9     9

4     6

7     4

What is the median for the distribution?

A) 6 B) 7
C) 8 D) 9

Answer:   C) 8



Explanation:
Summation of frequencies = 6+4+5+8+9+6+4 = 42
Median = mid value = average of 21st and 22nd value
Arranging data in increasing order we get

x     f

4     6

5     4

6     5

7     4

8     6

9     9

10    8

 
So mid value i.e 21st and 22nd value = 8
