MCQ

Statement A (Assertion) : Consider the following frequency distribution:

Class interval	10-15	15-20	20-25	25-30	30-35
Frequency	5	9	12	6	5

The modal class is $10-15$.
Statement $K$ (Keason) : The class having maximum frequency is called the modal class.

A
Both assertion (A) and reason ( $R$ ) are true and reason $(R)$ is the correct explanation of assertion $(A)$.
B
Both assertion (A) and reason ( $R$ ) are true and reason $(R)$ is not the correct explanation of assertion (A).
C
Assertion $(A)$ is true but reason $(R)$ is false.
✓
Assertion (A) is false but reason $(R)$ is true.

✓

Answer

Correct option: D.

Assertion (A) is false but reason $(R)$ is true.

(d) : Clearly, Reason is true.
The maximum frequency is 12 , which lies in the interval $20-25$. So, the modal class is 20-25.
$\therefore \quad$ Assertion is false but Reason is true.
