Question no: 01

Following is the group frequency distribution of 94 students which shows their test result in a
class. Find the arithmetic mean.

Given Data:

Class Interval No. Of Students


(frequency 𝑓 )
10 −20 8
20 −30 15
30 − 40 17
40 − 50 25
50 −60 12
60 −70 9
70 −80 8
To Find:
Arithmetic mean=?
Solution:

Class Interval No. Of Students Mid-Point ( 𝑚 ) ( 𝑓𝑚 )


Frequency ( 𝑓 )
10 −20 8 10+20 / 2=15 8 ×15=120
20 −30 15 20+30 / 2=25 15 ×25=375
30 − 40 17 30+ 40 / 2=35 17 ×35=595
40 − 50 25 40+ 50 / 2=45 25 × 45=1125
50 −60 12 50+60 / 2=55 12 ×55=660
60 −70 9 60+70 / 2=65 9 ×65=585
70 −80 8 70+80 / 2=75 8 ×75=600
