A group of 50 nurses were asked to estimate a minute. The results are shown in the table. Time (seconds)Frequency 10 < t ≤ 200 20 < t ≤ 302 30 < t ≤ 402 40 < t ≤ 509 50 < t ≤ 6013 60 < t ≤ 7017 70 < t ≤ 803 80 < t ≤ 902 90 < t ≤ 1002 Example 1

Averages Mode – with grouped data this is called the modal group or class. Modal group 60 < t ≤ 70 Time (seconds)Frequency 10 < t ≤ 201 20 < t ≤ 302 30 < t ≤ 402 40 < t ≤ 509 50 < t ≤ 6013 60 < t ≤ 7017 70 < t ≤ 803 80 < t ≤ 902 90 < t ≤ 1002

Estimated mean grouped data so the mean is estimated. Time (seconds) Frequency 10 < t ≤ 200 20 < t ≤ 302 30 < t ≤ 402 40 < t ≤ 509 50 < t ≤ 6013 60 < t ≤ 7017 70 < t ≤ 803 80 < t ≤ 902 90 < t ≤ 1002 Mid- point 15 25 35 45 55 65 75 85 95 Estimated mean = sum of mid-point x freq = total frequencies = 2930 = 58.6 seconds 50 Mid-point x Frequency 0 50 70 405 715 1105 225 170 190 Total 50 2930

1: Find the modal group, median and estimate the mean from the table below. 2: Draw a histogram to represent the data. Michelle keeps a record of the number of minutes her train is late each day. The table shows her results for a period of 50 days.
