MCQ
Let m be the midpoint and u be the upper class limit of a class in a continuous frequency distribution. The lower class limit of the class is:
  • A
    2m - u
  • B
    2m + u
  • C
    m - u
  • D
    m + u

Answer

  1. 2m - u

Solution:

Given:

Mid value = m

Upper limit = u

We know,

$\frac{\text{Upper}\ \text{limit}+\text{Lower}\ \text{limit}}{2}=\text{Mid}\ \text{value}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{Lower}\ \text{limit}+\text{u}}{2}=\text{m}$

⇒ Lower limit + u = 2m

⇒ Lower limit = 2m - u
