Solution

Dear Student
Given numbers are first 100 natural numbers.
Mean = Sum of all observation/No. of observations
Sum of first n natural numbers = n(n+1)/2
so, Sum of first 100 natural numbers= 100(101)/2
mean = (100(101))/(2 x 100)
mean = 101/2
mean = 50.5
Hence ,The mean of given numbers is 50.5
