  • B70.20
  • C70.30
  • D70.35

Detailed Solution & Explanation

**Step 1: Apply the empirical formula.** Mode=3×Median−2×Mean\text{Mode} = 3 \times \text{Median} - 2 \times \text{Mean} **Step 2: Substitute values.** - Mode = 70.50, Mean = 70.20 70.50=3×Median−2×70.2070.50 = 3 \times \text{Median} - 2 \times 70.20 70.50=3×Median−140.4070.50 = 3 \times \text{Median} - 140.40 3×Median=70.50+140.40=210.903 \times \text{Median} = 70.50 + 140.40 = 210.90 Median=210.903=70.30\text{Median} = \frac{210.90}{3} = 70.30 Hence, **Option C** is the correct answer.
