Here the classes and their corresponding frequencies are given. We calculate class marks.Class marks are the midpoints of the classes denoted by Xi.
The following table is calculated in excel.The columns in the table are needed in the formula of mean and standard deviation.
The mean and standard deviation can be found using the following formulas
