Solution

The correct option is B Rs 26.66
Choose 30 as the assumed mean

$\begin{matrix} X & F & D & F D (X - A) 10 & 6 & - 20 & - 120 20 & 8 & - 10 & - 80 30 (= A) & 9 & 0 & 0 40 & 4 & 10 & 40 50 & 3 & 20 & 60 \sum F = 30 & - 100 \end{matrix}$

$M e a n w a g e = A + \frac{\sum F D}{\sum F} = 30 + \frac{- 100}{30} = R s 26.66$
