Question

If the mode of the observations $5,4,4,3,5,x,3$, $4,3,5,4,3$, and 5 is 3 , then find the median of the observations.

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 5
• D. 3.5

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Given, Mode $=3$
$\therefore x=3$
Now, arrange the given data in ascending order,
$3,3,3,3,3,4,4,4,4,5,5,5,5$
$\therefore \text{ Median }=4$
Hence, option (b) is correct.
