Answers
Primary 6 PSLE Mathematics Quiz - Data Analysis
Answer Key
Section A: Mean, Median, Mode, and Range
1. (1 mark)
Mean = (4 + 6 + 5 + 6 + 9) ÷ 5 = 30 ÷ 5 = 6 books
Answer: 6
2. (1 mark)
The mode is the value that appears most frequently. 6 appears twice; all others appear once.
Answer: 6
3. (1 mark)
Range = Highest − Lowest = 142 − 120 = 22 cm
Answer: 22 cm
4. (1 mark)
Arrange in order: 70, 78, 85, 85, 92. The middle value is 85.
Answer: 85
5. (1 mark)
Total of 4 numbers = 15 × 4 = 60.
Sum of three known numbers = 12 + 18 + 10 = 40.
Fourth number = 60 − 40 = 20
Answer: 20
6. (2 marks)
(a) Total players = 3 + 7 + 5 + 3 + 2 = 20 players
(b) Total goals = (0 × 3) + (1 × 7) + (2 × 5) + (3 × 3) + (4 × 2) = 0 + 7 + 10 + 9 + 8 = 34
Mean = 34 ÷ 20 = 1.7 goals
Answers: (a) 20 (b) 1.7
7. (2 marks)
(a) Arrange in order: 2.2, 2.4, 2.8, 3.1, 3.5. Median = 2.8 kg
(b) Mean = (2.4 + 3.1 + 2.8 + 3.5 + 2.2) ÷ 5 = 14.0 ÷ 5 = 2.8 kg
Answers: (a) 2.8 kg (b) 2.8 kg
8. (2 marks)
(a) Range = 35 − 28 = 7°C
(b) Mean = (30 + 33 + 28 + 35 + 31) ÷ 5 = 157 ÷ 5 = 31.4°C
Answers: (a) 7°C (b) 31.4°C
9. (2 marks)
(a) Arrange in order: 8, 10, 12, 14, 35, 38, 65. Median = 14 years
(b) Mean = (8 + 12 + 35 + 38 + 10 + 14 + 65) ÷ 7 = 182 ÷ 7 = 26.0 years
(c) The median (14) is lower than the mean (26) because the two adult ages (35, 38) and especially the grandparent age (65) pull the mean upward. The median is not affected by extreme values and better represents the typical age of the group.
Answers: (a) 14 (b) 26.0 (c) Median is not affected by extreme values; the older ages skew the mean upward.
10. (2 marks)
(a) Mode = 4 hours (most frequent: 3 students)
(b) Total hours = (2 × 1) + (3 × 2) + (4 × 3) + (5 × 1) + (6 × 1) = 2 + 6 + 12 + 5 + 6 = 31
Mean = 31 ÷ 8 = 3.875 hours (or 3.9 hours to 1 d.p.)
(c) The mean will increase because 10 is much higher than the current values, pulling the average up. The median will stay the same or increase slightly — with 9 data points, the median is the 5th value when ordered. The original ordered data is: 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 6. Adding 10 gives: 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 6, 10. The median remains 4.
Answers: (a) 4 (b) 3.875 (c) Mean increases; median stays at 4.
Section B: Tables, Charts, and Graphs
11. (2 marks)
(a) Total = 25 + 40 + 30 + 15 + 35 = 145 fruits
(b) Fraction = 40/145 = 8/29 (divide numerator and denominator by 5)
Answers: (a) 145 (b) 8/29
12. (2 marks)
School = 108° corresponds to 9 hours.
Each degree = 9 ÷ 108 = 1/12 hour.
Sleep = 120° → 120 × (1/12) = 10 hours
Answer: 10 hours
13. (2 marks)
(a) Total = 2,400 + 3,600 + 1,800 + 4,200 = 12,000 visitors
(b) Mean = 12,000 ÷ 4 = 3,000 visitors per month
Answers: (a) 12,000 (b) 3,000
14. (3 marks)
(a) Increase = 30 − 10 = 20 cm
(b) Hour 3 to Hour 4: 30 − 28 = 2 cm decrease. Hour 4 to Hour 5: 28 − 20 = 8 cm decrease. Hour 5 to Hour 6: 20 − 16 = 4 cm decrease. The greatest decrease is from Hour 4 to Hour 5 (8 cm).
(c) Mean = (10 + 14 + 22 + 30 + 28 + 20 + 16) ÷ 7 = 140 ÷ 7 = 20 cm
Answers: (a) 20 cm (b) Hour 4 to Hour 5, decrease of 8 cm (c) 20 cm
15. (3 marks)
(a) Class 6A total = 2 + 3 + 8 + 10 + 7 = 30 pupils
(b) Class 6A: 10 + 7 = 17 pupils scored 61–100. Class 6B: 8 + 5 = 13 pupils scored 61–100. Class 6A has more.
(c) Partially agree. While Class 6A has more pupils in the 81–100 range (7 vs 5), Class 6B has more pupils in the 41–60 range (12 vs 8). Without knowing the exact scores within each range, we cannot definitively say which class performed better overall. However, Class 6A does have more high scorers (61–100: 17 vs 13).
Answers: (a) 30 (b) Class 6A (c) Class 6A has more pupils scoring 61–100 (17 vs 13), but exact comparison requires individual scores.
16. (3 marks)
(a) Range = 70 − 20 = 50 books
(b) Arrange in order: 20, 25, 30, 40, 45, 55, 70. Median = 40 books
(c) Mean = (45 + 30 + 25 + 40 + 55 + 70 + 20) ÷ 7 = 285 ÷ 7 = 40.7 (approx). The librarian's claim of 45 is not correct; the actual mean is approximately 40.7 books.
Answers: (a) 50 (b) 40 (c) No, mean ≈ 40.7, not 45.
Section C: Data Analysis Problem Sums
17. (4 marks)
(a) Total weight of 4 children = 32 × 4 = 128 kg
(b) Total weight of 5 children = 34 × 5 = 170 kg
(c) Weight of fifth child = 170 − 128 = 42 kg
Answers: (a) 128 kg (b) 170 kg (c) 42 kg
18. (4 marks)
(a) Total stamps = 130 × 4 = 520. Hannah = 520 − (120 + 80 + 160) = 520 − 360 = 160 stamps
(b) After transfer, Wei Ming and Siti have equal amounts. Combined = 120 + 80 = 200. Each has 200 ÷ 2 = 100. Wei Ming gave 120 − 100 = 20 stamps to Siti.
(c) Total stamps remain 520 (no stamps added or removed). New mean = 520 ÷ 4 = 130 stamps (unchanged).
Answers: (a) 160 (b) 20 (c) 130
19. (4 marks)
(a) Mean = (80 + 120 + 100 + 140 + 60) ÷ 5 = 500 ÷ 5 = 100 cones
(b) Required total for 6 days = 110 × 6 = 660. Saturday = 660 − 500 = 160 cones
(c) Required total for mean of 120 = 120 × 6 = 720. Saturday = 720 − 500 = 220 cones
Answers: (a) 100 (b) 160 (c) 220
20. (4 marks)
(a) Total marks = 80 × 6 = 480
(b) Pupil F = 480 − (72 + 85 + 68 + 90 + 78) = 480 − 393 = 87 marks
(c) Adding 5 marks to each of 6 pupils adds 30 to the total. New total = 480 + 30 = 510. New mean = 510 ÷ 6 = 85 marks. (Alternatively: new mean = 80 + 5 = 85.)
(d) Original total = 480. Corrected total = 480 − 68 + 75 = 487. Corrected mean = 487 ÷ 6 = 81.2 marks (to 1 d.p.)
Answers: (a) 480 (b) 87 (c) 85 (d) 81.2
