Pls solve the following question
Number of mangoes | Number of boxes fi |
50 − 52 | 15 |
53 − 55 | 110 |
56 − 58 | 135 |
59 − 61 | 115 |
62 − 64 | 25 |
It can be observed thatclass intervals are not continuous. There is a gap of 1 between twoclass intervals. Therefore,has to be added to the upper class limit andhas to be subtracted from the lower class limit of each interval.
Class mark (xi)can be obtained by using the following relation.
Class size (h)of this data = 3
Taking 57 as assumedmean (a), di, ui,fiui are calculatedas follows.
Class interval | fi | xi | di = xi − 57 | fiui | |
49.5 − 52.5 | 15 | 51 | − 6 | − 2 | − 30 |
52.5 − 55.5 | 110 | 54 | − 3 | − 1 | − 110 |
55.5 − 58.5 | 135 | 57 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
58.5 − 61.5 | 115 | 60 | 3 | 1 | 115 |
61.5 − 64.5 | 25 | 63 | 6 | 2 | 50 |
Total | 400 | 25 |
It can be observed that
Mean number of mangoeskept in a packing box is 57.19.
Step deviation methodis used here as the values of fi, diare big and also, there is a common multiple between all di.
