प्रश्न

The weights of tea in 70 packets are shown in the following table:

Weight 200 –
201
201 –
202
202 –
203
203 –
204
204 –
205
205 –
206
Number of packets 13 27 18 10 1 1

Find the mean weight of packets using step deviation method.

उत्तर

Let us choose a = 202.5, h = 1, then `d_i = x_i – 202.5 and u_i = (x_i-202.5)/1`

Using step-deviation method, the given data is shown as follows:

Weight Number of
packets `(f_i)`
Class mark
`(x_i)`
`d_i = x_i `–202.5 `u_i =
(x_i−202.5)/
1`
`(f_i u_i)`
200 - 201 13 200.5 -2 -2 -26
201 – 202 27 201.5 -1 -1 -27
202 – 203 18 202.5 0 0 0
203 – 204 10 203.5 1 1 10
204 – 205 1 204.5 2 2 2
205 – 206 1 205.5 3 3 3
Total `Ʃ f_i` = 70       `Ʃ f_i u_i `= -38

The mean of the given data is given by,

x =` a+ ((sum _i  f_i u_i)/( sum _i f_i)) xxh`

    =`202.5 + ((-38)/70) xx1`

    =202.5 – 0.542
    = 201.96
Hence, the mean is 201.96 g.
