    For the data 3, 5, 1, 6, 5, 9, 2, 8, 6 the mean, median and mode are x, y, and z respectively. Which one of the following is correct?

    A) \[x=y\ne z\]

    B) \[x\ne y=z\]

    C) \[x\ne y\ne z\]

    D) \[x=y=z\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] Given data \[3,,5,1,6,9,5,2,8,6\] and mean, median and mode are x, y, z respectively. Rearranging data \[1,2,3,5,5,5,6,6,8,9\] Mean \[=x\] \[=\frac{1+2+3+5+5+5+6+6+8+9}{10}=\frac{50}{10}=5\] Median \[=y=\frac{\frac{{{n}^{th}}}{2}term+{{\left( \frac{n}{2}+1 \right)}^{th}}term}{2}\] \[y=\frac{5+5}{2}=5\] Mode (z) = most frequently occurring value =5 Hence \[x=y=z.\]
