The number of goals scored by a football team in 20 matches is shown below
\(\begin{array}{c|c} \text{No. of goals} & 0 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 \\ \hline \text{No. of matches} & 3 & 5 & 7 & 3 & 1 & 0 \end{array}\)
What are the values of the mean and the mode respectively?

A.

(1.75, 5)

B.

(1.75, 2)

C.

(1.75, 1)

D.

(65, 74)

Correct answer is B

\(\begin{array}{c|c}x & f & fx\\ \hline 0 & 3 & 0\\ 1 & 5 & 5\\ 2 & 7 & 14\\ 3 & 4 & 12\\4 & 1 & 4\\5 & 0 & 0\end{array}\)
\(\sum{f}\) = 20

\(\sum fx\) = 35

Mean = \(\frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}\)

= \(\frac{35}{20}\)

= \(\frac{7}{4}\)

= 1.75

Mode = 2

= 1.75, 2
