Clarification:

Class      Frequency           Cumulative Frequency

 

65-85     4             4

 

85-105  5             9

 

105-125               13           22

 

125-145               20           42

 

145-165               14           56

 

165-185               7             63

 

185-205               4             67

Here, N/2 = 67/2 = 33.5 which lies in the span 125 – 145.

Subsequently, furthest constraint of middle class is 145.

Here, we see that the most noteworthy recurrence is 20 which lies in 125 – 145.

Consequently, the lower furthest reaches of modular class is 125.

∴ Required contrast = Upper constraint of middle class – Lower breaking point of modular class

    \[=\text{ }145\text{ }\text{ }125\text{ }=\text{ }20\]

Consequently, alternative (C) is right
