Name of Students: ______________________ and _______________________Score:_________

Directions: Do as indicated. Show your complete solutions and avoid unnecessary erasures, otherwise deduction
of points.

1. Use the tables below and find the mean, median and mode of the data.
a)
Age of Students (x) 10 9 8 9 11 8 10 11 9 10

Solution:

Mean = ___________, Median = ___________, Mode = ___________

b)
Math Score (x) 3 6 9 12 15
Frequency (f) 3 5 4 2 6
< cf

Mean = ___________, Median = ___________, Mode = ___________

c) Science Score (x) 5 10 15 20 25 30

Frequency (f) 2 8 7 5 2 1
< cf

Mean = ___________, Median = ___________, Mode = ___________

2. Consider the scores of 50 3rd year Mathematics major students in Discrete Math exam. Construct a
frequency distribution and compute the mean, median and mode of Table 1 and Table 2.

Note: For number of classes, use Rule 1 and for the first lower class limit, use lowest value.
