Answers

Secondary 3 Elementary Mathematics Quiz - Statistics Probability (Answer Key)

Total Marks: 40
Topic: Statistics & Probability

Section A: Data Handling and Averages

Q1. [2 marks]
Mean = (42 + 48 + 45 + 51 + 39 + 44 + 47) ÷ 7
= 316 ÷ 7
= 45.14 kg (or 45.1 kg to 1 d.p.)
Teaching note: Mean is the sum of all values divided by the count. Add carefully and divide by 7.
Common mistake: Dividing by wrong count (e.g., 6 or 8).

Q2. [1 mark]
Mode = 5
Teaching note: Mode is the most frequent value. 5 appears 4 times, more than any other.

Q3. [2 marks]
Ordered scores: 48, 49, 55, 58, 62, 62, 62, 70, 75, 81
10 values → median = average of 5th and 6th = (62 + 62) ÷ 2 = 62
Teaching note: Median is middle value of ordered data. With even count, average the two middle numbers.

Q4. [1 mark]
Total = 4 + 9 + 6 + 3 + 2 = 24 students
Teaching note: Sum the frequencies to get total number of students.

Q5. [2 marks]
Total siblings = (0×4) + (1×9) + (2×6) + (3×3) + (4×2) = 0 + 9 + 12 + 9 + 8 = 38
Mean = 38 ÷ 24 = 1.5833… ≈ 1.58 (2 d.p.)
Teaching note: Multiply each value by its frequency, sum, then divide by total students.

Section B: Representing Data and Interpretation

Q6. [2 marks]
Angle = (30 ÷ 120) × 360° = 90°
Teaching note: Pie chart angle = (category frequency ÷ total) × 360°.

Q7. [1 mark]
Total = 8 + 12 + 6 + 15 + 9 = 50 cars
Teaching note: Read bar heights from placeholder values and add.

Q8. [1 mark]
Thursday
Teaching note: Highest bar is Thu with 15.

Q9. [2 marks]
Ages: 12, 15, 17, 20, 23, 23, 28, 31, 34 → aged 20+ are 20, 23, 23, 28, 31, 34 = 6 people
Teaching note: Stem is tens, leaf is units. Count leaves with stem 2 and 3.

Q10. [1 mark]
Below 30 = 2 + 5 + 8 = 15 students
Teaching note: Sum frequencies for 0–9, 10–19, 20–29.

Section C: Probability

Q11. [2 marks]
Total marbles = 5 + 3 + 2 = 10
P(red) = 5/10 = 1/2
Teaching note: Probability = favourable outcomes ÷ total outcomes.

Q12. [1 mark]
P(>4) = P(5 or 6) = 2/6 = 1/3
Teaching note: Fair die has 6 equally likely outcomes.

Q13. [2 marks]
Outcomes: HH, HT, TH, TT
Teaching note: Two coins, each H or T; list systematically.

Q14. [1 mark]
Exactly one head: HT, TH → 2 out of 4 → P = 2/4 = 1/2
Teaching note: Use list from Q13.

Q15. [2 marks]
4 kings in 52 cards → P(king) = 4/52 = 1/13
Teaching note: Standard deck has 4 suits, each with one king.

Q16. [3 marks]
P(first white) = 6/10
P(second white | first white) = 5/9
P(both) = (6/10) × (5/9) = 30/90 = 1/3
Marking: 1 mark for first prob, 1 for second, 1 for product.
Teaching note: Without replacement, total and white both decrease by 1.

Q17. [2 marks]
Boys who like Math = 12, total = 40 → P = 12/40 = 3/10
Teaching note: Joint frequency ÷ total.

Q18. [2 marks]
Given girl: total girls = 20, girls liking Science = 10 → P = 10/20 = 1/2
Teaching note: Conditional probability: restrict to girls only.

Q19. [1 mark]
Red sections = 2 out of 4 → P = 2/4 = 1/2
Teaching note: Equal sections, count favourable.

Q20. [2 marks]
Mutually exclusive → P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) = 0.3 + 0.45 = 0.75
Teaching note: Mutually exclusive means no overlap, so add probabilities.
