                                 a.  Two.
                                 b.  Three.

                     2.      Which of the following is a kind of partition value?                  1
                                 a.  Arithmetic mean.
                                 b.  Median.
                                 c.  Quartiles.
                                 d.  Both options b and c.

                     3.      Mode refers to that value of a series that occurs ______              1
                             times in the series. (Maximum / Minimum)

                     4.      In a moderately symmetrical distribution Arithmetic                   1
                             mean and median are 30 and 33 respectively, then the
                             mode will be ___________.
                     5.      Out of the following, by which method mode can be                     1
                             calculated.
                                 a.  Inspection method.
                                 b.  Grouping method.
                                 c.   Both options a and b.
                                 d.  None of these.
                     6.      Median of these numbers 3,5,7,9,12 is ________.                       1
                     7       ______ is based on all the items of the distribution.                 1
                             (mean / median)
                     8       Cumulative frequency indicates ‘less than’ or ‘more                   1
                             than’ value of the series. (True / False)

                     9.      The point where more than ogive and less than ogive                   1
                             intersect each other determines median. (True / False)
                    10.          is the upper quartile of the series. (True / False)               1
                               1
                    11.      Define mode.                                                          1
                    12.      Define Median.                                                        1
