Case I: Finding Mode :
Here, the maximum class frequency is 7 and the class corresponding to frequency is 40 - 55. So the modal class is 40 - 55.
Thuse we have
Model class = 40.55
l = 40
f1 = 7
f0 =3
f2 = 6
and h = 15
Npw substituting these values in the formula of mode, we get
Case II: Finding Mean

Hence, the mode of the given data is 52 while median is 62.
Interpretation : Maximum number of students obtained 52 marks, while on an average student obtained 62 marks.
