In the given table i is the class interval which is equal to 10.
| Class | Class mark (x) | d = (x - A) | u = d/i | Frequency (f) | fu |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 100-110 | 105 | -30 | -3 | 5 | -15 |
| 110-120 | 115 | -20 | -2 | 10 | -20 |
| 120-130 | 125 | -10 | -1 | 17 | -17 |
| 130-140 | A = 135 | 0 | 0 | 8 | 0 |
| 140-150 | 145 | 10 | 1 | 6 | 6 |
| 150-160 | 155 | 20 | 2 | 4 | 8 |
| Total | Σf = 50 | Σfu = -38 |
Mean = A +
=
= 135 - 7.6
= 127.4
Hence, mean = 127.4
