Maths · Measures of dispersion; calculation of mean, median, mode of grouped and ungrouped data

Calculate the approximate value of mode for the following data: 2 3

Calculate the approximate value of mode for the following data: \( \begin{array}{lllll}\mathbf{x} & \mathbf{3}- & \mathbf{6}- & \mathbf{9}- & \mathbf{1 2}- \\ \mathbf{6} & \mathbf{9} & \mathbf{1 2} & \mathbf{1 5}\end{array} \) 2 3

  • A. 14
  • B. 15
  • C. 16
  • D. 17

Step-by-step solution

The modal class is 12-15 as it has the highest frequency. Using the formula for mode in grouped data, the approximate value is 15.
