Question

Find the mean of each of the following frequency distributions

Class interval 25 - 35 35 - 45 45 - 55 55 - 65 65 - 75
Frequency 6 10 8 12 4

Solution

Let the assume mean A = 50

Class interval Mid value(x1) d1 = x1 - 50 `"u"_1=(x_1 - 50)/10` f1 f1u1
25 - 35 30 -20 -2 6 -12
35 - 45 40 -10 -1 10 -10
45 - 55 50 0 0 8 0
55 - 65 60 10 1 12 12
65 - 75 70 20 2 4 8
        N = 40 `sumf_1"u"_1=-2`

We have

A = 50, h = 10

Mean `=A+hxx(sumf_1"u"_1)/N`

`=50+10(-2)/40`

`=50+(-20)/40`

`= 50-20/40

= 50 - 0.5

= 49.5
