  1. Step-by-step explanation:

    ClassFrequency (fi)Cumulative Frequency (cf)0 – 105510 – 20253020 – 30xx+3030 – 4018x+4840 – 507x+55

    Median is 24 which lies in 20 – 30

    ∴ Median class = 20 – 30

    Let the unknown frequency be x.

    Here, l = 20,

    n2=x+552

    , c.f. of the preceding class = c.f = 30, f = x, h = 10

    Now,

    Median,

    M=l+n2−cff×h

    ⇒24=20+x+552−30x×10

    ⇒24=20+x+55−602x×10

    ⇒ 24 = 20 +

    x−52x

    × 10

    ⇒ 24 = 20 +

    5x−25x

    ⇒ 24 = 20+

    5x−25x

    ⇒ 24x = 25x – 25

    ⇒ –x = – 25

    ⇒ x = 25

    Hence, the unknown frequency is 25.
