Arranging the data in ascending order, we get 2, 5, 7, 7, 8, 10, 10, 10, 14, 17, 18, 24, 25, 27, 28, 48 Since number of observations (n) = 16, which is even. Therefore, median is the mean of (n/2)th and (n/2 + 1)th observation, i.e., 8th and 9th observation. Here, 8th observation = 10 9th observation = 14 ∴ Median = 10 + 14/2 = 12 As 10 occurs most frequently, i.e., three times. So, the mode is 10.
