Consider the following frequency distribution table.
 Class interval 10-20 20-3030-40 40-50  50-60 60-7070-80 
 Frequency 180 $f_1$ 34180  136 $f_2$50 






If the total frequency is 685 & median is 42.6 then the values of $f_1$  and $f_2$  are

Solution

Median & Frequency Table

Given: Median = 42.6, Total Frequency = 685

Using Median Formula:

\( \text{Median} = L + \left( \frac{N/2 - F}{f} \right) \cdot h \)

  • Median Class: 40–50
  • Lower boundary \( L = 40 \)
  • Frequency \( f = 180 \)
  • Class width \( h = 10 \)
  • Cumulative freq before median class \( F = 214 + f_1 \)

Substituting values:

\( 42.6 = 40 + \left( \frac{128.5 - f_1}{180} \right) \cdot 10 \Rightarrow f_1 = \boxed{82} \)

Using total frequency:

\( 662 + f_2 = 685 \Rightarrow f_2 = \boxed{23} \)

✅ Final Answer: \( f_1 = 82,\quad f_2 = 23 \)
