Answer:

Ungrouped Data to Find the Mean 

When a data set is large, a frequency distribution table is often used to display the data in an organized way. A frequency distribution table lists the data values, as well as the number of times each value appears in the data set. A frequency distribution table is easy to both read and interpret and in this concept is used for ungrouped data, or data that is listed.

The numbers in a frequency distribution table do not have to be put in order. To make it easier to enter the values in the table, a tally column is often inserted. Inserting a tally column allows you to account for every value in the data set, without having to continually scan the numbers to find them in the list. A slash (/) is used to represent the presence of a value in the list, and the total number of slashes will be the frequency. If a tally column is inserted, the table will consist of 3 columns, and if no tally column is inserted, the table will consist of 2 columns. The formula that was written to determine the mean, \begin{align*}\overline{x}=\frac{\sum x_1+x_2+x_3+ \ldots + x_n}{n}\end{align*}, does not show any multiplication of the numbers by their frequencies. However, this can be easily inserted into this formula as shown below:

\begin{align*}\overline{x}=\frac{\sum x_1f_1+x_2f_2+x_3f_3+ \ldots + x_nf_n}{f_1+f_2+f_3+ \ldots + f_n}\end{align*}
