Data Handling Class 7 Extra Questions Very Short Answer Type

Question 1.
Find the range of the following data:
21, 16, 30, 15, 16, 18, 10, 24, 26, 20
Solution:
Greatest number 30
Smallest number = 10
Range = 30 – 10 = 20

Question 2.
Find the mode of the following data:
24, 26, 23, 26, 22, 25, 26, 28
Solution:
Arranging the given data with the same value together, we get
22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 26, 26, 28
Here, 26 occurs the greatest number of times i.e. 3 times
Thus, the required mode = 26.

Question 3.
Find the average of the numbers 8, 13, 15.
Solution:
Data Handling Class 7 Extra Questions Maths Chapter 3 Q3

Question 4.
Find the median of the following data:
8, 6, 10, 12, 14
Solution:
Let us arrange the given data in increasing order,
6, 8, 10, 12, 14
n = 5 (odd)
Median = ( $\frac { n+1 }{ 2 }$ )th term = 3rd term = 10
Thus, the required median = 10.

Question 5.
Find the median of the following data:
20, 14, 6, 25, 18, 13, 19, 10, 9, 12
Solution:
Arranging the given data in increasing order, we get
6, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 18, 19, 20, 25
n = 10 (even)
Data Handling Class 7 Extra Questions Maths Chapter 3 Q5
Thus, the required median = 13.5

Question 6.
A fair die is rolled, find the probability of getting a prime number.
Solution:
Number on a die = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
n(S) = 6
Prime numbers = 2, 3, 5
n(E) = 3
Probability = $\frac { n(E) }{ n(S) }$ = $\frac { 3 }{ 6 }$ = $\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$
Thus the required probability = $\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$ .

Question 7.
If the averages of the given data 6, 10, 12, x, 16 is 14, find the value of x.
Solution:
Average of the given numbers
Data Handling Class 7 Extra Questions Maths Chapter 3 Q7
Thus, the required value of x is 26.

Question 8.
Find the mean of the first 5 multiples of 3.
Solution:
Five multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15
Data Handling Class 7 Extra Questions Maths Chapter 3 Q8
Hence, the required mean = 9.

Question 9.
The following bar graph shows the number of books sold by a publisher during the five consecutive years. Read the bar graph and answer the following questions:
(i) About how many books were sold in 2008, 2009 and 2012 years?
(ii) In which years were 575 books were sold?
(iii) In which years were the minimum number of books sold?
Data Handling Class 7 Extra Questions Maths Chapter 3 Q9
Solution:

(ii) In the year of 2012, maximum number of books i.e. 575 were sold.
(iii) Minimum number of books i.e. 150 were sold in the year 2008.

Question 10.
Find the mean and median of first five prime numbers.
Solution:
First five prime numbers are: 2, 3, 5, 7 and 11
Data Handling Class 7 Extra Questions Maths Chapter 3 Q10
Here, n = 5
Median is the middle term, i.e., 5.

Question 11.
The marks obtained (out of 10) by 80 students in a class test are given below:
Data Handling Class 7 Extra Questions Maths Chapter 3 Q11
Find the mode of the above data.
Solution:
In the given frequency distribution table, we find that the observation 7 has maximum frequency, i.e., 20
Hence, the required mode = 7.

Question 12.
A bag contains 5 white and 9 red balls. One ball is drawn at random from the bag. Find the probability of getting
(a) a white ball
(b) a red ball
Solution:
Total number of balls = 5 + 9 = 14 balls
n(S) = 14
(i) Number of white ball = 5
n(E) = 5
Probability of getting white ball = $\frac { n(E) }{ n(S) }$ = $\frac { 5 }{ 14 }$
(ii) Number of red balls = 9
n(E) = 9
Probability of getting white ball = $\frac { n(E) }{ n(S) }$ = $\frac { 9 }{ 14 }$

Question 13.
A dice is tossed once. Find the probability of getting
(i) a number 5
(ii) a number greater than 5
(iii) a number less than 5
(iv) an odd number
(v) an even number
(vi) a number greater than 6
Solution:
Total number of outcomes = 6
n(S) = 6
(i) An event of getting a number 5
n(E) = 1
Probability = $\frac { n(E) }{ n(S) }$ = $\frac { 1 }{ 6 }$
(ii) An event of getting a number 5 greater than 5, i.e., 6
n(E) = 1
Probability = $\frac { n(E) }{ n(S) }$ = $\frac { 1 }{ 6 }$
(iii) An event of getting a number less than 5, i.e., 1, 2, 3 and 4.
n(E) = 4
Probability = $\frac { n(E) }{ n(S) }$ = $\frac { 4 }{ 6 }$ = $\frac { 2 }{ 3 }$
(iv) An event of getting an odd number, i.e., 1, 3 and 5.
n(E) = 3
Probability = $\frac { n(E) }{ n(S) }$ = $\frac { 3 }{ 6 }$ = $\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$
(v) An event of getting an even number, i.e., 2, 4 and 6.
n(E) = 3
Probability = $\frac { n(E) }{ n(S) }$ = $\frac { 3 }{ 6 }$ = $\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$
(vi) An event of getting a number greater than 6, i.e., Nil.
n(E) = 0
Probability = $\frac { n(E) }{ n(S) }$ = $\frac { 0 }{ 6 }$ = 0
