The CO emissions, x x\,x g/km, of 200 cars are summarised in the table below.
| CO emission (g/km) | Frequency |
|---|---|
| 0.0≤x<0.10.0 \le x < 0.10.0≤x<0.1 | 24 |
| 0.1≤x<0.20.1 \le x < 0.20.1≤x<0.2 | 56 |
| 0.2≤x<0.30.2 \le x < 0.30.2≤x<0.3 | 68 |
| 0.3≤x<0.50.3 \le x < 0.50.3≤x<0.5 | 40 |
| 0.5≤x<0.90.5 \le x < 0.90.5≤x<0.9 | 12 |
Use linear interpolation to estimate the median CO emission of these 200 cars.
Estimate the proportion of these cars with a CO emission of more than 0.4 g/km.
Give one reason why the median may be a more useful measure of location than the mean for these data.
