3. The distribution of age (in years) of 45 positive covid 19 patients is admitted in hospital
X is shown below. Calculate the following a.) mean b.) median c.) mode
d.) third quartile e.) fifth decile f.) 30th percentile.
Age f
80 – 89 2
70 – 79 4
60 – 69 3
50 – 59 10
40 – 49 13
30 – 39 8
20 – 29 4
10 – 19 1
4. Consider the distribution of the number of hours spent in the Internet Café per week by
50 medical students is shown below. Compute the a.) mean b.) median
c.) mode d.) third quartile e.) 7th decile f.) 75th percentile
g.) standard deviation
No. of Hours f
54 – 56 5
51 – 53 7
48 – 50 8
45 – 47 15
42 – 44 10
39 – 41 5
a.) mean
𝑥̅ = 2351 / 50
= 47.02
b.) median
𝑚𝑑 = 44.5 + {25 − 15}3 / 15
𝑚𝑑 = 44.5 + (10 ) 3 / 15
𝑚𝑑 = 44.5 + 2
md= 46.5
c.) mode
𝑚𝑜 = 44.5 + {15 − 5 } 3 / ( 2 (15 ) − 5 − 7 )
𝑚𝑜 = 44.5 +{10 } 3 / 18
𝑚𝑜 = 44.5 + 30 / 18
𝑚𝑜 = 44.5 + 1.7
mo= 46.2
e.) 7 th decile
𝐷 7 = 47.5 + {35 − 30 } 3 / 8 𝐷 7 = 47.5 + { 5 } 3 / 8
𝐷 7 = 47.5 + 15 / 8
𝐷 7 = 47.5 + 1.9
𝐷 7 = 49.4
SD= 130.76
Good Luck!
