7. From the given data we cantabulate the following.
xi | fi | Cumulative frequency C.f. | |xi - M| | fi |xi - M| |
5 | 8 | 8 | 2 | 16 |
7 | 6 | 14 | 0 | 0 |
9 | 2 | 16 | 2 | 4 |
10 | 2 | 18 | 3 | 6 |
12 | 2 | 20 | 5 | 10 |
15. | 6 | 26 | 8 | 48 |
Total | 26 |
|
| 84 |
Now, N=26 which is even.
So, Median is the mean of 13th and 14th observation. Both of these observations lie in the cumulative frequency 14 for which corresponding observation is 7.

4. Arranging the given data in ascending order we get,
36,42,45,46,46,49,51,53,60,72
As n = 10 (even)
= 47.5
| xi | 36 | 42 | 45 | 46 | 46 | 49 | 51 | 53 | 60 | 72 |
| |xi - M| | 11.5 | 5.5 | 2.5 | 1.5 | 1.5 | 1.5 | 3.5 | 5.5 | 12.5 | 24.5 |

3. Arranging the data in ascending order we get,
10,11,1112,13,13,14,16,16,17,17,18
As n=12, even
So, median is the mean of and observation.
So, deviation of respective observation about the median. are
xi | 10 | 11 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 13 | 14 | 16 | 16 | 17 | 17 | 18 |
| |xi - M| | 3.5 | 2.5 | 2.5 | 1.5 | 0.5 | 0.5 | 0.5 | 2.5 | 2.5 | 3.5 | 3.5 | 4.5 |
Therefore the mean deviation about the mean is

2. Mean of the given observation is.
So,
xi | 38 | 10 | 48 | 40 | 42 | 55 | 63 | 46 | 54 | 44 |
| |xi - 50| | 12 | 20 | 2 | 10 | 8 | 5 | 13 | 4 | 6 |
Therefore, the required mean deviation about the mean is
= 8.4

1. Mean of the given observation is.
Deviation of the respective observation about the mean i.e., are 4–10,7–10,8–10,9–10,10–10,12–10,13–10,17–10
=6, -3, -2, -1,0,2,3,7
The absolute value of the deviation i.e., are 6,3,2,1,0,2,3,7.
Therefore, the required mean deviation about the mean is
= 3.
