Chapter 18 – Data Handling
Data Handling – Exercise 18E all Questions Solution
Question no – (1)
Solution :
Arranging in ascending order
82, 85, 85, 87, 87, 87, 90, 90, 90
No of observation = 9
(9 + 1/2)th position
Median = 10/2th position
= 5th position
= 87
Question no – (2)
Solution :
In ascending order
8, 10, 10, 12, 12, 15
No of observation = 6 (even)
So,
Median = x/2th position + (x/2 + 1) position/2
= 6/2 position + (6/2 + 1) position/2
= 3rd position + 4th position/2
= 10 + 12/2
= 11
Question no – (3)
Solution :
In ascending order
5000, 8000, 8000, 9000, 9000, 10000, 10000, 10000, 50000
No of observation = 9 (odd)
So, median = (x + 1/2)th position
= 9 + 1/2th position
= 5th position
= Rs 9000
Question no – (4)
Solution :
Mean = 7 + 6 + 5 + 6 + 5 + 7 + 6 + 5/8
= 47/8
= 5.875
In ascending order
5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7
No of observation = 8
Median = (x/2th position + (x/2 + 1)th position)/2
= (4th position + (4 + 1)th position)/2
= 4th position + 5th position/2
= 6 + 6/2
= 6
No of mean and median are not same.
Multiple Choice Question
(i) On which day were the maximum number of parcels delivered?
Solution :
Maximum number of parcels delivered – (d) Thursday
(ii) On which day were the minimum number of parcels delivered?
Solution :
Minimum number of parcels delivered – (a) Saturday
(iii) How many more parcels were delivered on Tuesday than on Monday?
Solution :
Difference between Tuesday and Monday per parcels
= (9 – 7) × 10
= 2 × 10
= 20
So, The correct option is – (a) 20
(iv) What was the total number of parcels delivered over the whole week?
Solution :
Total parcels delivered over a week
(5 + 7 + 4 + 9 + 6 + 3) × 10
= 34 × 10
= 340
So, The correct option is – (c) 340
