The mileage (km per litre) of 50 cars of the same model was tested by a manufacturer and details are tabulated as given below:

Mileage (km/l) 10 – 12 12 – 14 14 – 16 16 – 18
Number of cars 7 12 18 13

Find the mean mileage. The manufacturer claimed that the mileage of the model was 16 km/litre. Do you agree with this claim?

उत्तर

Mileage
(km/l)
Class marks
`(bb(x_i))`
Number of cars
`(bb(f_i))`
`bb(f_i x_i)`
10 – 12 11 7 77
12 – 14 13 12 156
14 – 16 15 18 270
16 – 18 17 13 221
Total   `sumf_i = 50` `sumf_i x_i = 724`

Here, `sumf_i` = 50

And `sumf_i x_i` = 724

∴ Mean `(barx) = (sumf_i x_i)/(sumf_i)`

= `724/50`

= 14.48

Hence, mean mileage is 14.48 km/l.

No, the manufacture is claiming mileage 1.52 km/l more than average mileage.
