问题1.以下是飞机发动机15个零件的小时寿命。求中位数:
715、724、725、710、729、745、694、699、696、712、734、728、716、705、719。
解决方案:
On arranging the observations in ascending order, we have
694, 696, 699, 705, 710, 712, 715, 716, 719, 721, 725, 728, 729, 734, 745
Number of terms in the observation sequence is odd, i.e., N = 15
Now,
Median = (N + 1)/2th term
= (15 + 1)/2th term
= 8th term
Therefore, 716, which is the 8th term is the median of the data.
问题2:以下是某城市某班学生的身高分布:
Height (in cm): | 160 – 162 | 163 – 165 | 166 – 168 | 169 – 171 | 172 – 174 |
No of students: | 15 | 118 | 142 | 127 | 18 |
找到中值高度。
解决方案:
We have N = 420,
So, N/2 = 420/ 2 = 210
Now, The cumulative frequency just greater than N/2 is 275
Therefore, 165.5 – 168.5 is the median class s.t
L = 165.5, f = 142, F = 133 and h = (168.5 – 165.5) = 3
= 165.5 + 1.63
= 167.13
问题3.以下是100名学生的智商分布。找到中位数智商
Class interval (exclusive) | Class interval (inclusive) | Class interval frequency | Cumulative frequency |
160 – 162 | 159.5 – 162.5 | 15 | 15 |
163 – 165 | 162.5 – 165.5 | 118 | 133(F) |
166 – 168 | 165.5 – 168.5 | 142(f) | 275 |
169 – 171 | 168.5 – 171.5 | 127 | 402 |
172 – 174 | 171.5 – 174.5 | 18 | 420 |
N =420 |
解决方案:
N = 100,
Therefore, N/2 = 100/ 2 = 50
The cumulative frequency just greater than N/ 2 is 67 then the median class is (94.5 – 104.5) s.t,
L = 94.5, F = 33, h = (104.5 – 94.5) = 10
= 94.5 + 4.85
= 99.35

95 – 104 | 94.5 – 104.5 | 33(f) | 67 |
105 – 114 | 104.5 – 114.5 | 22 | 89 |
115 – 124 | 114.5 – 124.5 | 8 | 97 |

The cumulative frequency just greater than N/ 2 is 127 then median class is 50 – 60 s.t,
L = 50, f = 31, F = 96, h = 60 -50 = 10
问题6.计算以下分布的丢失频率,假设分布的中位数为24。
Rent (in Rs): | 15 – 25 | 25-35 | 35-45 | 45-55 | 55-65 | 65-75 | 75-85 | 85-95 |
No of houses: | 8 | 10 | 15 | 25 | 40 | 20 | 15 | 7 |
解决方案:
Let us assume the unknown frequency to be x.
Class interval | Frequency | Cumulative frequency |
0 – 10 | 5 | 5 |
10-20 | 25 | 30 (F) |
20-30 | x(f) | 30 + x |
30-40 | 18 | 48 + x |
40-50 | 7 | 55 + x |
N=170 |
Given: Median = 24
Therefore,
Median class = 20 – 30; L = 20, h = 30 -20 = 10, f = x, F = 30
4x = 275 + 5x – 300
4x – 5x = – 25
– x = – 25
x = 25
Therefore, x = 25

计算中位数并解释结果。
解决方案:
Class interval (exclusive) | Class interval (inclusive) | Frequency | Cumulative frequency |
15 – 19 | 14.5 – 19.5 | 53 | 53(F) |
20 – 24 | 19.5 – 24.5 | 140(f) | 193 |
25 – 29 | 24.5 – 29.5 | 98 | 291 |
30 – 34 | 29.5 – 34.5 | 32 | 323 |
35 – 39 | 34.5 – 39.5 | 12 | 335 |
40 – 44 | 39.5 – 44.5 | 9 | 344 |
45 – 49 | 44.5 – 49.5 | 5 | 349 |
50 – 54 | 49.5 – 54.5 | 3 | 352 |
55 – 54 | 54.5 – 59.5 | 3 | 355 |
60 and above | 59.5 and above | 2 | 357 |
N =357 |
N = 357,
And, N/2 = 357/ 2 = 178.5
The cumulative frequency just greater than N/2 is 193,
Therefore, median class is 19.5 – 24.5 s.t
l = 19.5, f = 140, F = 53, h = 25.5 – 19.5 = 5
Median = 23.98, that implies that nearly half of the women are married between the ages of 15 and 25.
问题8.下表列出了400盏霓虹灯的使用寿命:
Marks below: | 0-10 | 10 – 20 | 20 – 30 | 30-40 | 40-50 | 50-60 | 60-70 | 70-80 |
No of students: | 15 | 35 | 60 | 84 | 96 | 127 | 198 | 250 |
找到中位数寿命。
解决方案:
Life time | Number of lamps fi | Cumulative frequency (cf) |
1500 – 2000 | 14 | 14 |
2000 – 2500 | 56 | 70 |
2500 – 3000 | 60 | 130(F) |
3000 – 3500 | 86 | 216 |
3500 – 4000 | 74 | 290 |
4000 – 4500 | 62 | 352 |
4500 – 5000 | 48 | 400 |
N = 400 |
Now
N = 400
And the cumulative frequency just greater than n/2 (= 200) is 216, which belongs to the class interval 3000 – 3500
Median class = 3000 – 3500. Therefore,
(l) = 3000 and,(f) of median class = 86, (cf) of class preceding median class = 130 and (h) = 500
We have,
= 3000 + (35000/86)
= 3406.98 hrs, which is the median time of lamps.
问题9.以下分布给出了每班30名学生的体重。查找学生的体重中位数:
Marks below | No. of students | Class interval | Frequency | Cumulative frequency |
10 | 15 | 0-10 | 15 | 15 |
20 | 35 | 10-20 | 20 | 35 |
30 | 60 | 20-30 | 25 | 60 |
40 | 84 | 30-40 | 24 | 84 |
50 | 96 | 40-50 | 12 | 96(F) |
60 | 127 | 50-60 | 31(f) | 127 |
70 | 198 | 60-70 | 71 | 198 |
80 | 250 | 70-80 | 52 | 250 |
N = 250 |
解决方案:
Weight (in kg) | Number of students fi | Cumulative frequency (cf) |
40 – 45 | 2 | 2 |
45-50 | 3 | 5 |
50-55 | 8 | 13 |
55-60 | 6 | 19 |
60-65 | 6 | 25 |
65-70 | 3 | 28 |
70-75 | 2 | 30 |
The cf value just greater than n/ 2 (i.e. 30/ 2 = 15) is 19, belongs to class interval 55 – 60.
Therefore,
Median class = 55 – 60
where,
(l) of median class = 55, (f) of median class = 6, (cf) = 13 and (h) = 5
We have,
= 55 + 10/6 = 56.666 which is approximately 56.67 kg.
问题10.如果平均值为1.46,则找到以下分布的缺失频率和中位数
Age in years: | 0 – 10 | 10 – 20 | 20 – 30 | 30 – 40 | 40 – 50 |
No of persons: | 5 | 25 | ? | 18 | 7 |
解决方案:
No. of accidents (x) | No. of days (f) | fx |
0 | 46 | 0 |
1 | x | x |
2 | y | 2y |
3 | 25 | 75 |
4 | 10 | 40 |
5 | 5 | 25 |
N = 200 | Sum = x + 2y + 140 |
Since, we know,
N = 200
Substituting values, we get,
⇒ 46 + x + y + 25 + 10 + 5 = 200
⇒ x + y = 200 – 46 – 25 – 10 – 5
⇒ x + y = 114…… (i)
Also, Mean = 1.46
⇒ Sum/ N = 1.46
Substituting values,
⇒ (x + 2y + 140)/ 200 = 1.46
⇒ x + 2y = 292 – 140
⇒ x + 2y = 152 …….(ii)
Solving from (i) and (ii), we get
x + 2y – x – y = 152 – 114
⇒ y = 38
And, x = 114 – 38 = 76 (from equation (i))
Now, putting the values, we get,
N = 200 N/2 = 200/2 = 100
So, the cumulative frequency just greater than N/2 is 122
And, therefore, the median is 1.
