Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation:
\(Mean = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}\)= \(\frac{1170}{50} = 23.4\)
| Age in years | Classmark(x) | Frequency(f) | fx |
| 10 - 14 | 12 | 6 | 72 |
| 15 - 19 | 17 | 8 | 136 |
| 20 - 24 | 22 | 14 | 308 |
| 25 - 29 | 27 | 10 | 270 |
| 30 - 34 | 32 | 12 | 384 |
| Total | 50 | 1170 |
\(Mean = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}\)= \(\frac{1170}{50} = 23.4\)
