Exercise : 12.1

  1. A survey was conducted by a group of students as a part of their environment awareness programme, in which they collected the following data regarding the number of plants in 20 houses in a locality. Find the mean number of plants per house.
Number of plantsNumber of houses
0−21
2−42

TotalN=20162

We have, N=Σfi​=20 and Σfi​=162. Then mean of the data is x= N1​×Σfi​Xi​=201​×162=8.1 Hence, the required mean of the data is 8.1 plants.

We find the mean of the data by direct method because the figures are small.

  • Consider the following distribution of daily wages of 50 workers of a factory.

13−156
15−179
17−1913

∑fi​=44+f2f-20

It is given that mean =18. From the table, we have a=18, N=44+f and ∑fi​di​=2f−40 Now, mean =a+ N1​×Σfi​di​ Then substituting the values as given above, we have 18=18+44+f1​×(2f−40) ⇒0=44+f2f−40​⇒f=20.

Frequently Asked Questions

Grouped data is categorized into intervals (like class intervals in histograms), while ungrouped data is raw data that hasn’t been organized into intervals.

Cumulative frequency is the addition of all frequencies up to the end point of the grouped data. It comes in handy to estimate the proportion of observations that are less than a certain value in a given dataset.

The mean for grouped data is calculated using the formula: Mean = Σfixi / Σfi
