Q83 / 225 · JEE Main 2005 · Mathematics

If in a frequently distribution, the mean and median are 21 and 22 respectively, then its mode is approximately

A
22.0
B
20.5
C
25.5
Correct answer
D
24.0

Solution

Mode $+2$ Mean $=3$ Median $$ \Rightarrow \text { Mode }=3 \times 22-2 \times 21=66-42=24 \text {. } $$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
