D Correct answer
Explanation

For a grouped frequency distribution, the intersection point of the 'less than' and 'more than' ogives gives the median. The x-coordinate of this intersection point is the median.

AI explanation

The intersection point of the less than ogive and the more than ogive represents the median of a given dataset. The coordinates of this point are given in the form (x, y), where the x-coordinate corresponds to the median value. Since the intersection point is at (15.5, 20), the median is 15.5.
