Question

The mean of $864,874,884,1000$ and $1008$ is:

• A. $928$
• B. $1010$
• C. $926$
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C $926$

Given data is: $864,874,884,1000,1008$.

We know, Mean is given by,

$\text{Mean}=\frac{\text{Sum of the elements}}{\text{Total number of elements}}$ $=\frac{\sum x}{N}$.

Here, the number of observations $=5$.

$⟹\text{Mean}=$ $\frac{\sum x}{N}=\frac{864+874+884+1000+1008}{5}$

$=\frac{4630}{5}$ $=926$.

Therefore, option $C$ is correct.
