Teacher will explain the direct method for
calculating the mode of grouped data as Mode is defined as the value of
maximum frequency. If each value
occurs only once then there is no

saying.
 The process of computing mode in
case of a grouped series or grouped
frequency distribution with the help
of formula involves the following
steps;1. Determine the modal class). The
class having the maximum
frequency is called modal class .
this is done either by inspection
or by grouping method.
2. Determine the value of mode by
applying the formula

Solution to the
problem.
To solve mode
for a grouped
data.
Solution :-By inspection the maximum
frequency is 16 hence the modal class is
(30-40) .
fO= frequency of the pre modal class (20 –
30) = 10
f1= frequency of the modal class (30 – 40) =
16
f2= frequency of the succeeding modal class
(40 – 50) = 12
h= class interval
Lower limit ,l= 30 ,Upper limit ,u = 40

After the bell rings, the teacher will clean the blackboard
, collect the teaching aids and leave the classroom with
smiling face.
They will note down the home

them.
Students will greet the teacher by
saying “Thank You!”
