   $\mathrm{h}=$ class size (width) (assuming class size to be equal).

6. Mode $=l+\left(\frac{f_1-f_0}{2 f_1-f_0-f_2}\right) \times h$
   where
   $\mathrm{l}=$ lower limit of the modal class,
   $\mathrm{h}=$ size of the class interval (assuming all class sizes to be equal),
   $\mathrm{f}_1=$ frequency of the modal class,
   $\mathrm{f}_0=$ frequency of the class preceding the modal class,
   $f_2=$ frequency of the class succeeding the modal class.

7. Standard Deviation $\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n\left(x_i-\bar{x}\right)^2}$

Tips to Learn the Formula for JEE Main 2026

Students often find it challenging to learn formulas for the JEE Main, but with the right approach, they can effectively remember them. Given below are some points to remember:

1. Students must try to understand why a formula works. For example, derivations in Physics or Maths often follow a logical pattern.

2. Then break down formulas into chapters or topics.

3. To learn these formulas easily, try to make a formula notebook.

4. Sometimes students must try to make Mnemonics and short tricks, as it helps in quick revision.

5. Try to solve as many questions and revise

6. Try to use diagrams and flowcharts.
