A less-than ogive for 100 students' marks is given by the points (20,10),(40,30),(60,55),(80,85),(100,100).
Using graphical estimation, between which two consecutive points does the median lie, and in which class?

Class 10Cumulative Frequency and OgiveStatistics and Probability
  • ABetween (20,10) and (40,30); class 20-40
  • BBetween (40,30) and (60,55); class 40-60
  • CBetween (60,55) and (80,85); class 60-80
  • DBetween (80,85) and (100,100); class 80-100

Step-by-Step Solution

lies between cf = 30 (at 40) and cf = 55 (at 60), so the median falls in the class 40-60.
Answer: B) Between (40,30) and (60,55); class 40-60
