Step-by-step explanation:
To find the class mark (x i ) for each interval, using the following relation:
(x i ) = Upperclasslimit+Lowerclasslimit

Taking 17 as assumed mean (a), calculating di
and fi d i as:
From the table:
∑fi = 40
∑fi di = −181
Mean, xˉ = a+ ∑fi di
∑fi
= 17 + ( - 181 )
40
=17−4.525
=12.475
≈12.48
Therefore, the mean number of days =12.48 days for which a student was absent.
