Best Answer

If there are more than one class intervals which have the same frequency (equally qualifying to be the mode class) then both of the classes will be the mode class. this is called bimodal.

However to calculate the mode of grouped data use the following formula

Mode = L + [ (F - F1) / { (F - F1) + (F - F2) } ] * h

where

L = Lower limit of the modal class

F = Frequency of the modal class

F1 = Frequency of the class immediately previous of modal class

F2 = Frequency of the class immediate next of modal class

h = Range of the modal class (higher limit - lower limit)

this is what i found out after reading books and understanding them. Please correct me if i am wrong.

Thanks,

How many advantages and disadvantages of cumulative frequency?

Advantages 1. C.F curves can be use to read off values both way round 2. The original information from a grouped frequency distribution can be onbtained from the C.F curves I dunno any disadvantages!!


What is the difference between a frequency histogram and a relative frequency histogram?

Both divide the data into discrete groups or intervals. The frequency histogram gives the number of times the data occur in the particular group or interval, while the relative frequency histogram gives the fraction of times the data occur in the particular group or interval.

Do outliers change anything in a histogram?

Yes. They could increase the width and thereby reduce the frequency densities (heights) of the one or both of the outermost classes.
