(i) Jammu has the largest difference in temperature i.e., Maximum temperature = 41C and Minimum temperature = 26C


Difference = 41C26C=15C
 


(ii) Jammu is the hottest city as the maximum temperature is the highest among all the given cities and Bangalore is the coldest city because the minimum temperature there is lowest among all the given cities.
 


(iii) Maximum temperature of Bangalore = 28C


 Minimum temperature of two cities whose minimum temperature is higher than the maximum temperature of Bangalore are Ahmedabad and Jaipur = 29C
 


(iv) Mumbai has the least difference in temperature i.e., Maximum temperature = 32C and Minimum temperature = 27C.


Difference = 32C27C=5C

Question 95.


In the following table, the number of villains caught by BATMAN and SUPERMAN during a week is given. Whose daily average is more and how much is it?


In The Following Table, The Number Of Villains Caught By BAT...


  1.     BATMAN, 2
  2.     SUPERMAN, 2  
  3.     BATMAN, 3
  4.     SUPERMAN, 3 
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> BATMAN, 3
:
C

Average=Sum of all observationsTotal number of observations​​
Here, for both the cases, the total number of observations is the same and it is 7.
Average number of villians  caught by Batman  per day = 2+5+4+1+3+2+47 = 217 = 3.


Average number of villians  caught by Superman per day = 3+4+2+2+1+2+07147 = 2.


So, BATMAN's average is higher and it is 3.


Question 96.


Find the mode of the following data set.


1          2          6          9          5          9          4          18        14        2          8          11        7

  2.     4
  3.     2 and 9
  4.     18
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 2 and 9
:
C

Mode is the observation that occurs the most number of times. Here, 2 and 9 both occur two times. Therefore, they both are modes of the data.


Question 97.


The double bar graph given below gives the number of men and women visiting a sports complex during last week. Can you spot the day when the number of men was equal to the number of women?

 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Thursday
:
A

The Double Bar Graph Given Below Gives The Number Of Men And...
The heights of the bars that are drawn side by side in the above double bar graph, correspond to the number of men and the number of women who visit the sports complex on each day of the week.
The heights of both the bars are equal on Thursday. So, on Thursday, the numbers of men and women who visited the complex are equal. 


Question 98.


Find the difference between the mean and range of the following data set.
12,  86,  45,  78,  23,  56


  1.     24
  2.     50
  3.     0
  4.     74
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 24
:
A

Mean=Sum of all observationsNumber of observations
=12+86+45+78+23+566
=3006
= 50.                              


Range = Highest observation - Lowest observation
           = 86 - 12
           = 74


Difference between the mean and range  = 74 - 50 = 24


Question 99.


Find the median of the following data set.


12        65        3          8          23        64        19        53        0          24        57        15        39        


  1.     19
  2.     23
  3.     24
  4.     39
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 23
:
B

After arranging the data in ascending order, we get:


0,   3,   8,  12,  15,  19,   23,   24,   39,    53,  57,  64,  65.


Here, n = 13 = Odd
Median=(n+1)2 th observation
              =(13+1)2
              =7th observation
              =23 
Therefore,  median of the given data is 23.


Question 100.


You have a 8 faced die having numbers from 1 to 8 on its 8 faces. What would be the probability of getting 8 on throwing it?


  1.     16
  2.     13
  3.     18
  4.     12
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 18
:
C

If there are 6 faces, the probability of getting one of 6 digits is 16. So, in the case of 8 faces, probability of getting any of the 8 numbers must be 18Hence, the probability of getting 8 on throwing it is 18.
