Marking-scheme solution
\[\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline \text { Classes } & \text { frequency }\left(f_{\mathrm{i}}\right) & x_{\mathrm{i}} & f_{\mathrm{i}} x_{\mathrm{i}} & c f \\
\hline 5-15 & 2 & 10 & 20 & 2 \\
15-25 & 3 & 20 & 60 & 5 \\
25-35 & 5 & 30 & 150 & 10 \\
35-45 & 7 & 40 & 280 & 17 \\
45-55 & 4 & 50 & 200 & 21 \\
55-65 & 2 & 60 & 120 & 23 \\
65-75 & 2 & 70 & 140 & 25 \\
\hline \text { Total } & 25 & & 970 & \\
\hline
\end{array}
\]
Median class is $\displaystyle 35$-$\displaystyle 45$
\[\begin{aligned}
\text { Median } & =35+\left(\frac{\dfrac{25}{2}-10}{7}\right) \times 10 \\
& =\frac{270}{7} \text { or } 38.57 \text { approx. }
\end{aligned}
