उत्तर
Calculation of Mean :
| Marks (x) | Number of students (f) | fx |
| 5 | 6 | 30 |
| 10 | 4 | 40 |
| 15 | 6 | 90 |
| 20 | 12 | 240 |
| 25 | x | 25x |
| 30 | 4 | 120 |
| `sumf = 32 + x` | `sumfx = 520 + 25x` |
∴ Mean = `(sumfx)/(sumf)`
∴ 18 = `(520 + 25x)/(32 + x)`
⇒ 576 + 18x = 520 + 25x
⇒ 7x = 56
⇒ x = 8.
