Class Interval Frequency Cumulative Frequency
0 - 6 4 4
6 - 12 x 4 + x
12 - 18 5 9 + x
18 - 24 y 9 + x + y
24 - 30 1 10 + x + y
______________________________________________
20
______________________________________________
10 + x + y = 20
x + y = 20 - 10
x + y = 10
Median = 14.4
So, Median class is 12 - 18
Median = l + [(N/2 - cf)*i]/f
l = Lower limit of the Median Class = 12
Class Interval = i = 6
Cumulative Frequency (cf) of the class before the Median Class = 4 + x
N = 20
N/2 = 20/2 = 10
f = frequency of the Median Class = 5
⇒ Median = l + [(N/2 - cf)*i]/2
⇒ 14.4 = 12 + {10 - (4 + x)*6]/5
⇒ 14.4 - 12 = {(10 - 4 - x)*6}/5
⇒ 2.4 = {(6 - x)*6}/5
⇒ 2.4 = (36 - 6x)/5
⇒ 2.4*5 = 36 - 6x
⇒ 12 = 36 - 6x
⇒ - 6x = 12 - 36
- 6x = - 24
⇒ 6x = 24
x = 24/6
x = 4
Since, x + y = 10
4 + y = 10
y = 10 - 4
y = 6
So, the value of x is 4 and the value of y is 6.
