Question

The scores in mathematics test (out of 25) of students is as follows: 19, 25, 23, 20, 9, 20, 15, 10, 5, 16, 25, 20, 24, 12, 20

Find the mode and median of this data. Are they same?

Answer 1

Arranging the given data in ascending order, 5, 9, 10, 12, 15, 16, 19, 20, 20, 20, 20, 23, 24, 25, 25 

Mode is the observation occurred the highest number of times. 

Therefore, Mode = 20 Median is the middle observation = 20 

Yes, Mode and Median are same of given observation.
