0— 4 328 328
5— 9 350 678
10—19 720 1,398
20—29 664 2,062

Median is the value of (3806/2) or 1903th item which lies in 20-29 group. This is a
case of inclusive class-intervals. They should be made exclusive and the median
group should be deemed to be in 19.5—29.5 group. Thus the value of l1 would be
19.5 and not 20.
