The number of goals scored by a football team in 20 matches is shown below:

$\begin{array}{ccccccc}\text{No. of goals}& 0& 1& 2& 3& 4& 5\\ \text{No. of matches}& 3& 5& 7& 3& 1& 0\end{array}$

What are the values of the mean and the mode respectively?

Answer Details

$\begin{array}{ccc}x& f& fx\\ 0& 3& 0\\ 1& 5& 5\\ 2& 7& 14\\ 3& 4& 12\\ 4& 1& 4\\ 5& 0& 0\end{array}$
$\sum f$ = 20
$\sum fx$ = 35
Mean = $\frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}$
= $\frac{35}{20}$
= $\frac{7}{4}$
= 1.75
Mode = 2
= 1.75, 2
