Show SolutionHide Solution
Correct table
Mean $= 115 + \frac{46}{35} \times 10 = \frac{897}{7}$ or 128.14 approx.
$\therefore$ Mean height is $\frac{897}{7}$ cm or 128.14 cm approx.
Median Class is 130 - 140
Median $= 130 + \frac{\frac{35}{2} - 14}{14} \times 10 = 132.5$
$\therefore$ Median height is 132.5 cm
Difference of mean height and median height $= 132.5 - 128.14 = 4.36$ cm
