Question:
Find the unknown entries o, b, c, d, e and f in the following distribution of heights of students in a class
Solution:
On comparing last two tables, we get
$a=12$
$\therefore \quad 12+b=25$
$\Rightarrow$ $b=25-12=13$
$22+b=c$
$\Rightarrow$ $c=22+13=35$
$22+b+d=43$
$\Rightarrow \quad 22+13+d=43$
$\Rightarrow \quad d=43-35=8$
and $\quad 22+b+d+e=48$
$\Rightarrow \quad 22+13+8+e=48$
$\Rightarrow \quad e=48-43=5$
and $\quad 24+b+d+e=f$
$\Rightarrow \quad 24+13+8+5=f$
$\therefore \quad f=50$
