H.B Commerce Classes

This document provides the sections and questions for a statistics exam on skewness and frequency distributions for class 11 commerce students. Section A contains 3 multiple choice questions worth 2 marks each on identifying skewness, median, and coefficient of skewness from frequency distributions. Section B contains 1 question worth 4 marks to calculate coefficient of skewness using Bowley's Method from a given frequency table. Section C contains 2 questions worth 5 marks each to calculate skewness and coefficient using Karl Pearson's Method from tables of machine rejections and cotton mill consumption. The final section contains 1 additional question worth 4 marks to find coefficient of skewness using Bowley's Method for a table of power consumption by machines.
