Question 12 Marks
Find the mode of 90, 55, 67, 55, 75, 75, 40, 35, 55, 95.
Answer
If the data is arranged in ascending order, it is easy to find the observation
repeating maximum number of times.
Ascending order of given data. 35, 40, 55, 55, 55, 67, 75, 75 90, 95
The observation repeated maximum number of times = 55.
∴mode for the given data is 55.

Question 22 Marks
Find the median of the data. 30, 25, 32, 23, 42, 36, 40, 33, 21, 43
Answer
Let us write the given observations in the ascending order.
$
21,23,25,30,32,33,36,40,42,43
$
Here number of observations $=10$ which is an even number.
$\therefore$ the 5 th and 6 th numbers are in the middle position.
Those numbers are 32 and 33
$
\therefore \text { median }=\frac{32+33}{2}=\frac{65}{2}=32.5

Question 32 Marks
Find the median of 54, 63, 66, 72, 98, 87, 92.
Answer
Let us write the given observations in the ascending order.
54, 63, 66, 72, 78, 87, 92
Here the 4th number is at the middle position, which is 72
∴Median of the scores = 72

Question 42 Marks
The weights of 10 students (in kg) are given below:
40, 35, 42, 43, 37, 35, 37, 37, 42, 37. Find the mode of the data.
Answer
Given data in ascending order:
35, 35, 37, 37, 37, 37, 40, 42, 42, 43
∴ The observation repeated maximum number of times = 37
∴ Mode of the given data is 37 kg

Question 52 Marks
In a basket there are $10$ tomatoes. The weight of each of these tomatoes in grams is as follows:
$60, 70, 90, 95, 50, 65, 70, 80, 85, 95.$
Find the median of the weights of tomatoes.
Answer
Given data in ascending order:
$50, 60, 65, 70, 70, 80 85, 90, 95, 95$
$\therefore$ Number of observations $(n) = 10$ (i.e., even)
$\therefore$ Median is the average of middle two observations
Here, 5th and 6th numbers are in the middle position
$\therefore \text { Median }=\frac{70+80}{2}$
$\therefore \text { Median }=\frac{150}{2}$
$\therefore$ The median of the weights of tomatoes is $75$ grams.

Question 62 Marks
The marks (out of 100) obtained by 7 students in Mathematics examination are given below. Find the mode for these marks.
99, 100, 95, 100, 100, 60, 90
Answer
Given data in ascending order:
60, 90, 95, 99, 100, 100, 100
Here, the observation repeated maximum number of times = 100
∴ The mode of the given data is 100.

Question 72 Marks
Find the median of the observations, 59, 75, 68, 70, 74, 75, 80.
Answer
Given data in ascending order:
59, 68, 70, 74, 75, 75, 80
∴ Number of observations(n) = 7 (i.e., odd)
∴ Median is the middle most observation
Here, 4th number is at the middle position, which is = 74
∴ The median of the given data is 74.

Question 82 Marks
Yield of soyabean per acre in quintal in Mukund’s field for 7 years was 10, 7, 5,3, 9, 6, 9. Find the mean of yield per acre.
Answer
$\begin{aligned} \text { Mean } & =\frac{\text { The sum of all observations in the data }}{\text { Total number of observations }} \\ & =\frac{10+7+5+3+9+6+9}{7} \\ & =\frac{49}{7}\end{aligned}$
Mean = 7
The mean of yield per acre is 7 quintals.

Question 112 Marks
Complete the following table.

Image

Answer
Let frequency of the class 14 – 15 be x then, from table,
5 + 14 + x + 4 = 35
∴ 23 + x = 35
∴ x = 35 – 23
∴ x = 12
