The following table shows the weights of 12 workers in a factory:
Weight (in kg) | No. of workers |
---|---|
60 | 4 |
63 | 3 |
66 | 2 |
69 | 2 |
72 | 1 |
Find the mean weight of the workers.
Weight (in kg) (xi) | No. of workers (fi) | fi xi |
---|---|---|
60 | 4 | 240 |
63 | 3 | 189 |
66 | 2 | 132 |
69 | 2 | 138 |
72 | 1 | 72 |
Σ fi = 12 | Σ fi xi =771 |
We know that
Mean weight of the workers = Σ fi xi/ Σ fi
By substituting the values
Mean weight of the workers = 771/12 = 64.250kg
Therefore, the mean weight of the workers is 64.250kg.
