उत्तर

 

To find the class mark of each interval, the following relation is used.

`x_i  = ("Upper class limit + Lower class limit")/2`

Taking 17 as the assumed mean (a), di and fidi are calculated as follows:

Number of days

Number of students fi

Mid value(xi) di = xi − 17 fixi
0 − 6 11 3 − 14 33
6 − 10 10 8 −9 80
10 − 14 7 12 −5 84
14 − 20 4 17 0 68
20 − 28 4 24 7 96
28 − 38 3 33 16 99
38 − 40 1 39 22 39
Total 40     499

From the table, we obtain

`sumf_i = 40`

`sumf_ix_i = 499`

`"Mean " barx = ((sumf_ix_i)/(N))`

`= (499/40)`

=12.475

Therefore, the mean number of days is 12.48 days for which a student was absent.
