Solution

The correct option is B 0.098
Let assumed mean, i.e., a=0.10

Class intervalFrequency(fi)Class mark(xi)di=xiafidi0.000.0440.020.080.320.040.0890.060.040.360.080.1290.100.000.000.120.1620.140.040.080.160.2040.180.080.320.200.2420.220.120.24Totalfi=30fidi=0.04

Mean=(x)=a+fidifi=0.10+0.0430=0.098

So, the mean of SO2 concentration = 0.098
