Calculate the mean by shortcut method.
Q. 93. Use graph sheet for this question. Draw a histogram for the daily earnings of
54 medical stores in the following table and hence estimate the mode for the
following distribution. Take 2 cm = ₹ 500 units along the x-axis and 2 cm = 5 stores
along the y-axis.
Daily 4500 - 5000 5000 - 5500 5500 - 6000 6000 - 6500 6500 – 7000
earnings (₹)

Q. 94. Use a graph sheet for this question. The daily wages of 120 workers working
at a site are given below:
Wages (in 250 – 300 - 350 350 - 400 400 - 450 450 - 500 500 - 550 550 –
₹) 300 600

workers
Use 2 cm = ₹50 and 2 cm = 20 workers along x axis and y axis respectively to draw
an ogive and hence estimate:
(a) the median wages.
(b) the inter- quartile range of wages.
(c) percentage of workers whose daily wages is above ₹475.
Q. 95. The following table show the heights of a group of students:
Height 140 - 145 145 - 150 150 - 155 155 - 160 160 - 165 165 - 170 170 –
(in cm) 175
No. of 8 12 18 22 26 10 4
Students
Use a graph sheet to draw an Ogive for the distribution. Use the Ogive to find:
(i) the inter quartile range
(ii) the number of students whose height is more than 168 cm.
(iii) the number of students whose height is less than 148 cm.

probability of getting a card which is :
(i) a prime number.
(ii) a number divisible by 4.
(iii) a number that is a multiple of 6.
