Solution

The correct option is A
10

$M e a n = \frac{5 \times 4 + 6 \times 6 + 7 \times 12 + 8 \times f + 9 \times 8}{4 + 6 + 12 + f + 8}$
Where f is the missing frequency
$\Rightarrow 7.3 = \frac{20 + 36 + 84 + 8 f + 72}{30 + f} = \frac{212 + 8 f}{30 + f} \Rightarrow 219 + 7.3 f = 218 + 8 f \Rightarrow 7 = .7 f \Rightarrow f = \frac{7}{.7} = \frac{70}{7} = 10$
