Solution

The correct option is B II only
The number of customers in line are 22,22,22,22,24,27,31,32,32,33,35,36,37,45,47,47,50,51,51,51.
Mean=22+22+22+22+24+27+31+32+32+35+36+37+45+47+47+50+51+51+5120
=76820=38.4
Here, n is even number which is 20
Median=(n2+1)thobservation=(202+1)thobservation=11thobservation
Median=35
Here, 22 occurs 4 times which is maximum.
Mode=22
So, here we can see only statement II is true. The median is less than the mean.
