The modal class from the above frequency distribution is \(12–15\) ∴ The mode is calculated using the formula: \[ = l + \left(\frac{f_1 - f_0}{2f_1 - f_0 - f_2}\right) \times h \] Where: \(l = 12\), \(f_1 = 24\), \(f_0 = 12\), \(f_2 = 21\), \(h = 3\) \[ = 12 + \frac{24 - 12}{2 \times 24 - 12 - 21} \times 3 = 12 + \frac{12}{15} \times 3 = 12 + 2.4 = 14.4 \quad \text{(Answer)} \]
