Monthly incomeNo.of employees (f)Class markd = x - Au = d/ifu
0-4552-4-1-55
4-815A = 6000
8-1206104106
12-1608148216
16-20121812336
20-2442216416
TotalΣf = 100Σfu = 19

By formula,

Mean = A + ΣfuΣf×i\dfrac{Σfu}{Σf} \times i

= 6 + 19100×4\dfrac{19}{100} \times 4

= 6 + 76100\dfrac{76}{100}

= 6 + 0.76

= 6.76

Hence, mean = 6.76
