The table below shown the salaries of 280 persons:

Salary (In thousand) No. of Person
5-10 49
10-15 133
15-20 63
20-25 15
25-30 6
30-35 7
35-40 4
40-45 2
45-50 1

Calculate the median salary of the data.


Let N  = total frequency

 we have N = 280 N2 = 2802 = 140

The cumulative frequency just greater than N/2 is 182 and the corresponding class is 10-15

Thus 10-15 is the median class such that

l = 10
f =133
F = 49
h = 5
Median  = l + N2-Ff x h  = 10 + 140-49133 x 5 = 13.42

Class Frequency (F) Cumulative Frequency (f)
5 -10 49 49
10-15 133 182
15-20 63 245
20-25 15 260
25-30 6 266
30-35 7 273
35-40 4 277
40-45 2 279
45-50 1 280
