Question

For the given data given below, calculate the mean of its median and mode.

6, 2, 5, 4, 3, 4, 4, 2, 3

Answer 1

Arranging the data in a ascending order, we get
2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 6

Since, observations are odd in number.

∴ Median = Middle most observation = 4

Since, 4 occurs most frequently i.e., 3 times

∴ Mode = 4

Now, mean of median and mode is given by

Mean = (Median + Mode)/2

= (4 + 4)/2

= 8/2

= 4
