Question

The point scored by a basketball team in a series of matches are as follows
17,2,7,27,25,5,14,17,18,24,25,27,28,48
find the median and mode of the above data .

Answer 1

Arranging the scores in an ascending order, we get
2,5,7,7,8,10,10,10,14,17,18,24,25,27,28,48
Here, n= 16 ( even)
Median score = mean of `(n/2) "th and " (n /2 +1)` th scores
mean of 8th and 9th scores
`((10 +14)/2) = 24/2 =12`
Mode= most occurring score =10
