Question

The values of the mode and the mean are 7.52 and 9.83 respectively in a moderately asymmetrical distribution. Find the median of the distribution.

A.

9.00

B.

8.86

C.

8.90

D.

9.06

Correct option is D

Given:

Mode = 7.52

Mean = 9.83

Concept Used:

MeanMode=3×(MeanMedian)\text{Mean} - \text{Mode} = 3 \times (\text{Mean} - \text{Median})​​

Solution:

9.837.52=3×(9.83Median)9.83 - 7.52 = 3 \times (9.83 - \text{Median})​​

2.31=3×(9.83Median)2.31 = 3 \times (9.83 - \text{Median})​​

2.313=9.83\frac{2.31}{3} = 9.83​ - Median

0.77 = 9.83 - Median

Median = 9.83 - 0.77 = 9.06
