find the mean of the following grouped data (round off to second decimal place). 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 frequency 5 8 20 14 7 3 2



Answer :

The Mean value for the given data = 12.92(approximate)

Define Mean

  • In statistics, Mean is the ratio of sum of all the observations and total number of observations in a data set.
  • For example, mean of 2, 6, 4, 5, 8 is: Mean = (2 + 6 + 4 + 5 + 8) / 5 = 25/5 = 5.

Given that,

[tex]x_{i}[/tex] = 8, 10, 12 , 14 , 16, 18 , 20

[tex]f_{i}[/tex] = 5 , 8 , 20, 14 , 7, 3 , 2

[tex]f_{i}[/tex] x [tex]x_{i[/tex]

i) 8 x 5 = 40

ii) 10 x 8 = 80

iii) 12 x 20 = 240

iv) 14 x 14 = 196

v) 16 x 7 = 112

vi) 18 x 3 = 54

vii) 20 x 2 = 40

[tex]Mean = \frac{sum of value of all observation}{total no of observation}[/tex]

          = [tex]\frac{40 + 80 + 240 + 196 + 112 + 54 + 40}{5 + 8 + 20 + 14 + 7 + 3 +2}[/tex]

          = 762/59

          = 12.915

          ≈12.92

Hence , the value of Mean = 12.92 (approximate)
