उत्तर
| Time | Class mark (xi) | No. of students (fi) | xi × fi |
| 0 - 2 | 1 | 7 | 7 |
| 2 - 4 | 3 | 18 | 54 |
| 4 - 6 | 5 | 12 | 60 |
| 6 - 8 | 7 | 10 | 70 |
| 8 - 10 | 9 | 3 | 27 |
| Total | `bb(sumf_i=50)` | `bb(sumx_ixxf_i=218)` |
Mean = `(sum x_i f_i)/(sum f_i)`
= `218/50`
= `109/25`
= 4.36 hours
Hence, the mean time spent by students on their studies is 4.36 hours.
