Answer

Steps :

  1. Draw a histogram of the given distribution.

  2. Inside the highest rectangle, which represent the maximum frequency (or modal class), draw two lines AC and BD diagonally from the upper corners C and B of adjacent rectangles.

  3. Through the point E (the point of intersection of diagonals), draw EF perpendicular to horizontal axis.

  4. The value of point F on the horizontal axis represents the value of mode.

For the following frequency distribution, draw a histogram on a graph paper. Use the graph drawn to estimate the mode for the given data. Model Paper 4, Concise Mathematics Solutions ICSE Class 10.

∴ Mode = 144

Hence, mode = 144.
