Determine the mean monthly salary of 50 employees of a company from the following frequency distribution.
\(\begin{array}{c|c} \text{Monthly salary} & \text{Frequency}\\\hline N200.00 & 10\\ N325.00 & 5\\N100.00 & 20\\N120.00 & 2\\ N60.00 & 10\\ N80.00 & 3\end{array}\)

In a sample survey of a University Community, the following table shows the percentage distribution of the number of members per house hold
\(\begin{array}{c|c} \text{No. of members per household} & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 8 & \text{Total} \\ \hline \text{No. of households} & 3 & 12 & 15 & 28 & 21 & 10 & 7 & 4 & 100\end{array}\)
What is the median?

\(\begin{array}{c|c} x & 2 & 4 & 6 & 8\\ \hline f & 4 & y & 6 & 5 \end{array}\)
If the mean of the above frequency distribution is 5.2, find y

\(\begin{array}{c|c} Weight(s) & 0 -10 & 10 - 20 & 20 - 30 & 40 - 50\\ \hline \text{Number of coconuts} & 10 & 27 & 19 & 6 & 2\end{array}\)
Estimate the mode of the frequency distribution above

\(\begin{array}{c|c} x & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 \\ \hline f & y + 2 & y - 2 & 2y - 3 & y + 4 & 3y - 4\end{array}\)
This table shows the frequency distribution of a data if the mean is \(\frac{43}{14}\) find y
