Secondary 1 Mathematics Quiz - Statistics Probability (Answer Key)
Total Marks: 40
Topic: Statistics & Probability
Section A: Data Handling and Averages
Q1 [2 marks]
Data: 3, 5, 2, 8, 5, 6, 5 (7 values)
Mean = (3+5+2+8+5+6+5) ÷ 7 = 34 ÷ 7 ≈ 4.86
Teaching note: Mean is the sum of all values divided by the count. 34/7 = 4.857... round to 2 d.p. if needed.
Answer: 34/7 or 4.86
Q2 [2 marks]
Ordered data: 2, 3, 5, 5, 5, 6, 8
Median = middle value = 5 (4th value)
Teaching note: Arrange in order; for odd count, median is the centre.
Answer: 5
Q3 [2 marks]
Mode = most frequent value = 5 (appears 3 times)
Teaching note: Mode is the value with highest frequency.
Answer: 5
Q4 [2 marks]
Mean = (10×2 + 20×5 + 30×3 + 40×2) ÷ (2+5+3+2)
= (20+100+90+80) ÷ 12 = 290 ÷ 12 ≈ 24.17
Answer: 290/12 or 24.17
Q5 [2 marks]
Range = max − min = 13 − 4 = 9
Teaching note: Range shows spread.
Answer: 9
Section B: Representing Data
Q6 [2 marks]
Swimming=15, Tennis=5 → difference = 10
Answer: 10
Q7 [2 marks]
MRT angle = 126° out of 360° → (126/360)×40 = 14
Teaching note: Sector angle proportion gives frequency.
Answer: 14
Q8 [2 marks]
Increase = 30 − 24 = 6°C
Answer: 6
Q9 [2 marks]
Total = 4+9+5+2 = 20
Answer: 20

Answer: 6
Q17 [2 marks]
Without nuts = 6 out of 10 → P = 6/10 = 3/5
Answer: 3/5
Q18 [2 marks]
P(Science) = 8/25
Answer: 8/25
Q19 [2 marks]
Sum of 4 numbers = 12×4 = 48. Fourth = 48 − (10+14+9) = 15
Answer: 15
