Mean of the distribution is 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following frequency distribution below;

 

   Class                       Frequency (f)               X                X \times f

    1 - 3                                  9                          2                   18

    3 - 5                                22                         4                   88

    5 - 7                                27                          6                  162

    7 - 10                               17                        8.5               144.5            

    Total                              75                                             412.5        

Here, X (middle value of the class interval (C.I.) is calculated by the following formula ;

                   X  =  \frac{\text{Upper Limit of C.I. + Lower Limit of C.I.}}{2}

i.e. X for C.I. 1 - 3 =  \frac{3+1}{2} = 2

Now, the mean formula for any frequency distribution is given by;

                  Mean,  \bar X  =  \frac{\sum X \times f}{\sum f}

                                    =  \frac{412.5}{75}

                                    =  5.5

Hence, the mean of the given distribution is 5.5.
