is

Statistics

Solution:

The table can be made as:
x f Class c,f
7 2 6.5 - 7.5 2
8 1 7.5-8.5 3
9 5 8.5-9.5 8
10 4 9.5 - 10.5 12
11 6 10.5-11.5 18
12 1 11.5 - 12.5 19
13 3 12.5-13.5 22

$N =22$
Medlan $=l+ h \left[\frac{ N }{ M }- c \cdot f \right]$
$l=\frac{9.5+9.5}{21}=9.5 h =1 f =4$ and $c \cdot f =8$
$\therefore$ Medlan $=9.5+\frac{1}{4}[11-8]=10.25 \cong 10$
