  1. A 45
  2. B 25
  3. C 20
  4. D 16
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 25

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, Coefficient of variation \(=7.2\) Variance \(\sigma^2=3.24\) Coefficient of variation \(=\frac{\sigma}{\bar{\chi}} \times 100\) \(7.2=\frac{\sqrt{3.24}}{\bar{x}} \times 100 \Rightarrow \bar{x}=\frac{1.8}{7.2} \times 100 \Rightarrow \bar{x}=25\) Hence, mean \(=25\)
