EXERCISE – 29

Q. 1. The daily wages of 160 workers in a building project are given below :

Wages (in Rs.) 0 – 10 10 – 20 20 – 30 30 – 40 40 – 50 50 – 60 60 – 70 70 - 80
No. of Workers 12 20 30 38 24 16 12 8

Using a graph paper, draw an ogive for the above distribution.

Use your ogive to estimate : 

  1. The median wages of the workers.
  2. The upper quartile wages of the workers.
  3. The lower quartile wages of the workers.
  4. The percentage of workers who earn more than Rs. 45 a day.

Q. 2. The marks obtained by 200 students in an examination are given below :

Marks 0-10 10-20 20-30 30-40 40-50 50-60 60-70 70-80 80-90 90-100
No. of Students 5 10 11 20 27 38 40 29 14 6

Using a graph paper, draw an ogive for the above distribution. Use your ogive to estimate:

  1. The median;
  2. The lower quartile;

Q. 3. Draw a histogram and hence estimate the mode for the following frequency distribution :

Class 0 – 10 10 – 20 20 – 30 30 – 40 40 – 50 50 – 60
Frequency 2 8 10 5 4 3

Q. 4. Using the data given below construct the cumulative frequency table and draw the ogive. From the ogive determine the median.

Marks 0 – 10 10 – 20 20 – 30 30 – 40 40 – 50 50 – 60 60 – 70 70 – 80
No. of students 3 8 12 14 10 6 5 2

Q. 5. The following table shows the distribution of the heights of a group of factory workers

Height (cm) 150-155 155-160 160-165 165-170 170-175 175-180 180-185
No. of workers 6 12 18 20 13 8 6
  1. Determine the cumulative frequencies.
  2. Draw the cumulative frequency curve on a graph paper.
           Use 2 cm = 5 cm height on one axis and 2 cm = 10 workers on the other.
  3. From your graph, write down the median height in cm.

Q. 6. The table given below shows the monthly wages of some factory workers :

  1. Using the table, calculate the cumulative frequencies of workers.
  2. Draw the cumulative frequency curve.
  3. Use your graph to write down the median wage in Rs.
Wages in Rs. No. of workers
6500 – 7000
7000 – 7500
7500 – 8000
8000 – 8500
8500 – 9000
9000 – 9500
9500 – 10000

Draw a histogram of the data given above, on graph paper, and estimate the mode.

Q. 8. The table shows the distribution of the daily wages, earned by 160 workers in a building site.

Wages in Rs. Per day No. of workers
0 – 10
10 – 20
20 – 30
30 – 40

  1. The median wage;
  2. The upper and lower quartile wage earned by the workers
Answers
1. (i) Rs.35 (ii) Rs.47.5 (iii) Rs.23.5 (iv) 28.125% 2. (i) 57 (ii) 38
