Consider the following frequency distribution :
Suppose that the sum of the frequencies is 19 and the median of this frequency distribution is 6. For the given frequency distribution, let denote the mean deviation about the mean, denote the mean deviation about the median, and denote the variance.
Match each entry in List-I to the correct entry in List-II and choose the correct option.

Answer: (C)
Solution
From the given conditions: , so .
Since the median is 6, and arranging values in order, we need the 10th value (middle of 19) to be 6. This gives and .
(P) → (5)
Calculating mean :
(Q) Mean deviation about mean:
→ (3)
(R) Mean deviation about median (6):
→ (2)
(S) Variance:
→ (1)
Answer: (P)→(5), (Q)→(3), (R)→(2), (S)→(1)
