प्रश्न

The weight of coffee in 70 packets are shown in the following table:

Weight (in g) Number of packets
200 – 201 12
201 – 202 26

उत्तर

In the given data, the highest frequency is 26, which lies in the interval 201 – 202

Here, l = 201, fm = 26, f1 = 12, f2 = 20 and (class width) h = 1

∴ Mode = `l + ((f_m - f_1)/(2f_m - f_1 - f_2)) xx h`

= `201 + ((26 - 12)/(2 xx 26 - 12 - 20)) xx 1`

= `201 + (14/(52 - 32))`

= `201 + 14/20`

= 201 + 0.7

= 201.7 g

Hence, the modal weight is 201.7 g.
