उत्तर

 Class  Frequency  Cumulative Frequency 
 0 – 10 4 4
10 – 20 9 13
20 – 30 15 28
30 – 40 14 42
40 – 50 8 50

Number of terms = 50

∴ Median = `(25 + 26^(th))/2` term

= 25.5th term

  
Through mark of 25.5 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 28
