Arranged data set is:
1 4 6 6 9 12 13 19 25 33 45 56
Median: The middle most value after arranging the given data.
Here, the number of observations is 12, which is an even number. So, we take the average of the two observations in the middle to find the value of median.
Median = 12+132 = 12.5. (Mean of the 6th and 7th observation)
Mode: The observation that occurs most often in the data set.
We can find 6 two times in the data set. This is the most repeated value in the data set. The value of the mode is 6.
i.e., Mode = 6.
Difference between median and mode of the given data set = 12.5-6 = 6.5.

65=3080+Marks scored by Arjun+ Marks scored by Karan50.
Since marks scored by Arjun = Marks scored by Karan
Marks scored by Arjun + Marks scored by Karan = 2 × Marks scored by Arjun.
So, 65 × 50 = 3080 + 2 × Marks scored by Arjun.
So, marks scored by Arjun =3250−30802=1702=85 marks.
There is a data set with 1000 observations. Out of these observations, the observation that occurs most frequently is 9, which occurs 13 times. After taking 20 more observations, it was observed that 13, which was not there in the observations before, occurred 19 out of 20 times and 9 occurred only 1 out of 20 times. What is the mode in these 1020 observations?
___
:
In the 1000 observations, 9 will be the mode.
In 1020 observations, frequency of 9 = 13 + 1 = 14
In 1020 observations, frequency of 13 = 19
So, mode of the observations = 13.

The difference between the highest and lowest observations is called range.
Largest integer = 12.
Smallest integer = -13.
Range = 12-(-13) = 25.

Mean=Sum of all observationTotal number of observation
Mean=9+10+8+9+12+106=9.66.
The mean is 9.66.

Given Data is: 2, 14, 16, 12, 14, 14, 16, 14, 10, 14, 18, 14.
Arranging the observations in the ascending order.
2, 10, 12, 14, 14, 14, 14, 14, 14, 16, 16, 18.
Clearly, the most repeated observation is 14.
⇒ 14 is mode.

Range is defined as the difference between the highest and the lowest observation.
Here, after arranging marks in ascending order : ( -6 ),( -1 ) , 0 , 2, 8 , 12 , 14 , 15.
Lowest observation: (-6)
Highest observation: 15
Range = Highest observation - Lowest observation
Range = 15 - (-6) = 21

Given runs are, 12, 32, 43, 32, 12, 32, 12, 32, 36, 54,11.
Arranging the numbers in ascending order:
11, 12, 12, 12, 32, 32, 32, 32, 36, 43, 54.
Mode of a set of observations is the observation which occurs most often.
Clearly, here, 32 runs are scored by most of the batsman.
So, the mode of the observation is 32.

Given,
Weights of 9 different students : 54kg, 56kg , 54kg , 57kg , 54kg , 52kg , 54kg , 55kg , 59kg
Arranging the data in ascending order,
52kg, 54kg, 54kg, 54kg, 54kg, 55kg, 56kg, 57kg, 59kg
Median is the middle most observation of the given observations
⇒ Median = 54kg
Mode is the most repeated observation of the given observations
Clearly, 54kg is the most repeated observation
⇒ Mode = 54kg
