Question
Following information is obtained for two frequency distributions with $50$ and $60$ observations respectively.
Which distribution is closer to symmetrical frequency distribution?
Frequency distribution A: $Q_{1}=158, Q_{3}=$ $210, M=190$
Frequency distribution B: $Q_{1}=82, Q_{3}=$ $104, M=88$

Answer

Frequency distribution $A$: $j=-0.23$
Frequency distribution $B$: $J=0.45$ Frequency distribution $A$ is closer to symmetrical frequency distribution.
