This document provides an example of calculating the median from a continuous data set with inclusive class intervals. It shows the data organized into frequency tables with value ranges and corresponding frequencies. It then shows the computation of the cumulative frequencies to find that the median lies in the 20-29 value range. However, since the class intervals are inclusive, the median group should actually be considered 19.5-29.5 to account for the half-unit class widths. The document concludes by noting that Transtutors is a good resource for getting help with computations of medians in continuous series with inclusive class intervals.

Example: Calculate median from the following data.
Value Frequency Value Frequency
0—4 328 30—39 598 5—9 350 40—49 524 10—19 720 50—59 378 20—29 664 60—69 244 (Andhra Univ., B. Com., March 1977) Solution: Computation of Median
Class-interval Frequency Cumulative
frequency 0— 4 328 328 5— 9 350 678 10—19 720 1,398 20—29 664 2,062 30—39 598 2,660 40—49 524 3,184 50—59 378 3,562 60-69 244 3,806 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.
