Question:
[Section C]
Find the mean of the frequency distribution shown in the given table using assumed mean method.
Step-by-Step Solution
Key Concept: Assumed mean $A = 62.5$. $\bar{x} = A + \dfrac{\sum f_i d_i}{\sum f_i}$.
Table setup with class marks $x_i$ and deviations $d_i = x_i - 62.5$. $\sum f_i = 30, \sum f_i d_i = -15$. [1.5 Marks]
$\bar{x} = 62.5 + (-15/30) = 62.5 - 0.5 = 62$. [1.5 Marks]
Correct Answer: Mean $= 62$
