Mean = Sum of observations / Total number of observations.
Sum of observations
= x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8
=> Sum of all Observations
= 5x + 20
Mean = 24
Number of Observations = 5
Substituting in the formula we get,
=> 24 = ( 5x + 20 ) / 5
Cross Multiplying 5 with 24 we get,
=> 24 × 5 = 5x + 20
=> 120 = 5x + 20
=> 120 - 20 = 5x
=> 100 = 5x
=> x = 100/5
=> 20
Hence, the value of x is 20.
