The following data gives the information on the observed lifetimes (in hours) of 225 electrical components: Lifetimes (in hours) 0 - 20 20 - 40 40 - 60 60 - 80 80 - 100 100 - 120 Frequency 10 35 52 61 38 29 Determine the modal lifetimes of the components

As per the question:

Modal class = 60-80

l = 60

h = 20

f₁ = 61

f₀ = 52

f₂ = 38

$Mode = 60+(\frac{61-52}{(2\times61)-52-38})\times20$

$Mode = 60+\frac{9\times20}{32}$

Or Mode = 60 + 5.625

or Mode = 65.62

Thus, the modal lifetime of 225 electrical components is 65.62 hours
