The number of children in 10 families of a locality are 2, 4, 3, 4, 2, 0, 3, 5, 1 and 6. Find the mean number of children per family.
It is given that number of children in 10 families of a locality are 2, 4, 3, 4, 2, 0, 3, 5, 1 and 6.
We know that
Mean = sum of numbers/ total numbers
By substituting the values
Mean = (2 + 4 + 3 + 4 + 2 + 0 + 3 + 5 + 1 + 6)/ 10
On further calculation
Mean = 30/10
By division
Mean = 3
Therefore, the mean number of children per family is 3.
