To draw the less than type ogive, we plot 20,3 , 30,7 , 40,10 , 50,13 ,(60,17)(70,24)(80,33)   on the graph and join them by freehand. The graph obtained will be the required less than type graph.
Question Image Here, N = 33.
So, N 2 =16.5   We locate the point on the ogive whose y-coordinate is 16.5. The x-coordinate of that point is the median.
Question ImageThe x-coordinate of that point is 58.75. So, the median is 58.75.
Therefore, the required median is 58.75.
Therefore, option 3 is correct.
