1.

In a certain investigation, 460 persons were involved in the study, and based on an enquiry
on their age, it was known that 75% of them were 22 or more years. The following frequency
distribution shows the age composition of the persons under study. Find the mean and modal
life of condensers.

Mid-age 13 18 23 28 33 38 43 48

No. of 24 F1 90 122 F2 56 20 33
persons

Mean

460 x 0.75 = 345

90 +122 + F2 + 56 + 20 + 33 = 321

345 - 321 = 24 (f2)

24 + 91 (f1)+ 90 +122 + 24 + 56 + 20 + 33 = 460

460 / 8 = 57.5

2. A teacher attaches 2 to quiz, 3 to midterm and 5 for final exam. If a student gets 90, 50 and
60 for quiz, midterm and final exam respectively, what is his/her average academic
performance?

Solution:

90 X 0.20 %=1850 X 0.30 %=1560 X 0.50 %=30Total=63 %

3. Find the mean, median, and mode for the frequency distribution of score of 56 students in
