JAMB - Mathematics (1989 - No. 39)
If n is the median and m is the mode of the following set of numbers, 2.4, 2.1, 1.6, 2.6, 2.6, 3.7, 2.1, 2.6, then (n, m) is
(2.6, 2.6)
(2.5, 2.6)
(2.6, 2.5)
(2.5, 2.1)
Объяснение
Arrange the numbers in order, 1.6, 2.1, 2.1| 2.4, 2.6| 2.6, 2.6, 3.7
n = median = \(\frac{2.4 + 2.6}{2}\)
= 2.5
m = mode = 2.6
∴ (n, m) = (2.5, 2.6)
n = median = \(\frac{2.4 + 2.6}{2}\)
= 2.5
m = mode = 2.6
∴ (n, m) = (2.5, 2.6)
