Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Solution: Find the mean (average) using the formula Mean = Σfx ÷ Σf.
Step 1: Compute total frequency Σf = 8 + 12 + 20 + 10 + 6 + 4 = 60.
Step 2: Compute Σfx by multiplying each mark by its frequency and summing:
20 × 8 = 160
30 × 12 = 360
40 × 20 = 800
50 × 10 = 500
60 × 6 = 360
70 × 4 = 280
Now sum these products: Σfx = 160 + 360 + 800 + 500 + 360 + 280 = 2460.
Mean = Σfx ÷ Σf = 2460 ÷ 60 = 41.
Therefore the average score of the students is 41.
