Step 1
We first make a table using the given data
Number of cars34567number of people141912911
Mean=total number of cars soldtotal number of people
=(3×14)+(4×19)+(5×12)+(6×9)+(7×11)65
=30965=4.75384615385
Answer (a): 30965 or 4.75384615385
Step 2
b) Median will be the middle value of 65
middle value =65+12=662=33
Cumulative frequency of 4 is =(14+19)=33
So 4 is the 33th value
Answer: Median =4
Step 3
c) Mode is the value with the highest frequency. That is 4 with frequency =19
So, mode =4
answer(c): 4
