उत्तर

a. The weights of 12 persons are 70, 62, 54, 57, 62, 84, 75, 59, 62, 65, 78 and 60.

Sum of weights of 12 people

= 70 + 62 + 54 + 57 + 62 + 84 + 75 + 59 + 62 + 65 + 78 + 60

= 788

Number of observations (persons) = 12

∴ Mean = `"Sum of all observations (weight of 12 persons)"/"Number of observations"`

= `788/12`

= 65.66

b. Weights above 65.66 are 70, 84, 75 and 78, i.e. 4 persons.

c. Range = Maximum observation – Minimum observation

= 84 – 54

= 30
