The table below gives the scores of a group of students in a Mathematical test.
(begin{array}{c|c} Scores & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 8 \ hline Frequency & 2 & 4 & 7 & 14 & 12 & 6 & 4 & 1end{array})
If the mode in m and the number of students who scored 4 or less is s. What is (s, m)?

If the mode in m and the number of students who scored 4 or less is s. What is (s, m)?
-
A.
(27, 4) -
B.
(14,4) -
C.
(13,4) -
D.
(4,4)
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation
M = mode = the number having the highest frequency = 4
S = Number of students with 4 or less marks
= 14 + 7 + 4 + 2
= 27
∴ (M,S) = (27, 4)
