Question
In the formula
Options
lower limits of classes
upper limits ofclasses
mid-points of classes
frequency of the class marks
Solution
The given formula represents the formula to find the mean by assumed mean method.
Here, di = \[x_i - a\]
where xi is the ith observation and a is assumed mean.
So, di's are the deviation from a of mid-points of the classes.
