Question
For a certain frequency distribution, the value of Mean is 101 and Median is 100. Find the value of Mode.
Solution
The interrelation between the measures of central tendency is given by
Mean – Mode = 3(Mean - Median)
Given that Mean = 101 and Median = 100
Thus from the above relation, we have,
101 – Mode = 3 (101 - 100)
101 - Mode = 3
101 - 3 = Mode
Mode = 98
