Mahesh collected the details of monthly pocket money received by students of his class. The total number of students is 50. After collecting the data, he analyzed the data and prepared a report on the monthly pocket money received by students of his class. Using this report, he drew the following graph for a particular of monthly pocket money received by students of his class:



Based on the above graph, answer the following questions:
  1. Identify less than type ogive and more than type ogive from the given graph.
  2. Find the median monthly pocket money received by students.
  3. Obtain the Mode of the data if mean monthly pocket money is 158

Dear Student,
The red line (curve 2) is the more than ogive and the blue line ( curve 1) is the less than ogive. 
​​​​​​The point of intersection of the two lines( less than and more than ogives ) is the median. 
Hence, the median is 156.
Now,
Mode = 3 median - 2 mean 
= 3 ×156- 2×158=468-316= 152
