1. The coins are tossed 1024 times. The theoretical frequencies of 10 heads, 9 heads, 8 heads,……,1
head, and 0 head are given below:
No. of heads Frequency No. of heads Frequency
0 1 6 210
1 10 7 120
2 45 8 45
3 120 9 10
4 210 10 1
5 252

Calculate the mean number of heads per tossing.

2. Calculate arithmetic mean from the following data:

Value Frequency Value Frequency
0-4 328 30-39 598
5-9 350 40-49 524
10-19 720 50-59 378
20-29 664 60-69 244

3. The mean weight of a student in a group of six students is 119 lbs. The individual weights of five of
them are 115, 109, 129, 117 and 114 lbs. What is the weight of the sixth student?

4. Mean of 100 items is found to be 30. If at the time of calculation two items are wrongly taken as 32
and 12 instead of 23 and 11, find the correct mean.

5. Find the median:

Wages Rs. No of labourers
60-70 5
50-60 10
40-50 20
30-40 5
20-30 3

6. Following is the distribution of marks in Law obtained by 50 students:

Marks more than No. of students
0 50
10 46
20 40
 30 20
40 10
50 3
Calculate the median marks. If 60% percent of the students pass this test, find the minimum marks
obtained by a pass student.

7. There are two branches of a company, employing 280 and 320 persons respectively. If the arithmetic
mean of the monthly salaries paid by the two companies are Rs. 750 and Rs. 937.5 respectively, find
the arithmetic mean of the salaries of the employees of the companies as a whole.

8. The mean wage of 100 labourers working in a factory, running two shifts of 60 and 40 respectively, is
Rs. 38. The mean wage of 6o labourers working in the morning shift is Rs. 40. Find the mean wage of
40 labourers working in the evening shift.
