उत्तर

Weight (kg) No. of boys  Cumulative Frequency 
10 – 15 11 11
15 – 20 25 36
20 – 25 12 48
25 – 30 5 53
30 – 35 2 55

Number of terms = 55 

∴ Median = `(55 + 1^(th))/2` term

= 28th term

 
Through mark of 28 on the y-axis, draw a line parallel to x-axis which meets the curve at A. From A, draw a perpendicular to x-axis, which meets x-axis at B. 

The value of B is the median which is 18.4 kg.
