Math Problem Statement
Solution
This image provides a frequency distribution table showing "Nilai" (values) and "Frekuensi" (frequencies). To solve the question, we likely need to find the mean, median, or another statistical value, and the multiple-choice options at the bottom suggest that we need to calculate something specific from this distribution.
Let's break it down step-by-step, assuming we are tasked with calculating the mean (as the provided answer options suggest):
1. Midpoint of each class interval:
The midpoint () is calculated as the average of the lower and upper limits of each interval:
2. Mean Formula:
The formula for the mean () in a frequency distribution is: Where:
- is the frequency of each class,
- is the midpoint of each class.
Now, we multiply each midpoint by the corresponding frequency and sum them up.
3. Calculations:
Class Interval | Midpoint | Frequency | |
---|---|---|---|
11 – 20 | 15.5 | 3 | 46.5 |
21 – 30 | 25.5 | 7 | 178.5 |
31 – 40 | 35.5 | 10 | 355 |
41 – 50 | 45.5 | 16 | 728 |
51 – 60 | 55.5 | 20 | 1110 |
61 – 70 | 65.5 | 14 | 917 |
71 – 80 | 75.5 | 10 | 755 |
81 – 90 | 85.5 | 6 | 513 |
91 – 100 | 95.5 | 4 | 382 |
Now, summing up the products :
4. Total Frequency .
5. Mean:
The closest option to this result is 56 (option d).
Would you like a more detailed explanation or to ask about other calculations?
Here are 5 related questions you may want to explore:
- How do you calculate the median from a frequency distribution?
- How would you determine the mode in this dataset?
- What if the class intervals were unequal—how would the calculation change?
- How can we represent this data graphically (histogram, frequency polygon)?
- What is the significance of the standard deviation for this dataset?
Tip: Always check if the class intervals are equal, as unequal intervals require additional adjustments when calculating the mean, median, or mode.
