Answer :
The number of degree of freedom for reading the t values is 60 , the correct option is (c) .
In the question ,
it is given that ,
number of items in the sample = 61 items
the mean of the sample is given as 23 ,
we have to find the degree of freedom(df) ,
the degree of freedom(df) can be solved using the formula
degree of freedom(df) [tex]=[/tex] (number of observations) - 1
Substituting the values in the formula ,
we get ,
degree of freedom = 61 - 1
= 60
Therefore , The number of degree of freedom for reading the t values is 60 , the correct option is (c) .
The given question is incomplete , the complete question is
