Question:
The median of the following distribution is:x 4 5 6 7 8 9 f 6 4 5 8 6 9 Total 10
The median of the following distribution is:
| x | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| f | 6 | 4 | 5 | 8 | 6 | 9 |
| Total | 10 |

- Marks obtained by all the students of class 12 are presented in a frequency distribution with classes of equal width. Let the median of this grouped data be 14 with median class interval 12-18 and median class frequency 12. If the number of students whose marks are less than 12 is 18, then the total number of students is:
