Solution SAQ 28
Given:
Mode = 83
Mean = 92
Median =?
We know:
Mode = 3(Median) - 2(Mean)
83 = 3 (Median) - 2(92)
3 (Median) = 83 + 184

Solution SAQ 29
Given:
Mean = 146
Median = 130
Mode =?
Mode = 3(Median) - 2(Mean)
Mode = 3(130) - 2(146)
Mode = 390 - 292
Solution SAQ 30
Given:
Mode = 63
Median = 77
Mean =?
We know:
Mode = 3(Median) - 2(Mean)
63 = 3 (77) - 2 (Mean)
2 (Mean) = 231 - 63
