1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to find the mean and coefficient of variation for the given data. The data represents sales in different ranges, along with their relative frequencies and actual frequencies.

2. Solution Steps

First, we calculate the midpoint (xx) of each sales range. This is given in the table already.
Second, we multiply each midpoint (xx) by its frequency (ff) to get fxfx. This is also given in the table.
Third, we calculate the mean, which is the sum of the fxfx values divided by the sum of the frequencies.
Mean=fxf\text{Mean} = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}
From the image, fx=697.5+1732.5+3150+4347.5+6532.5+8917.5+10525+11250=47152.5\sum fx = 697.5 + 1732.5 + 3150 + 4347.5 + 6532.5 + 8917.5 + 10525 + 11250 = 47152.5.
The sum of the frequencies is 9+21+36+47+67+87+98+100=4659+21+36+47+67+87+98+100 = 465.
So,
Mean=47152.5465=101.4032101.40\text{Mean} = \frac{47152.5}{465} = 101.4032 \approx 101.40
Next, we need to compute the standard deviation to find the coefficient of variation. To do that we need fx2\sum fx^2.
fx2fx^2:

82.52×21=143203.12582.5^2 \times 21 = 143203.125
87.52×36=27562587.5^2 \times 36 = 275625
92.52×47=402453.12592.5^2 \times 47 = 402453.125
97.52×67=635859.37597.5^2 \times 67 = 635859.375
102.52×87=911421.875102.5^2 \times 87 = 911421.875
107.52×98=1131612.5107.5^2 \times 98 = 1131612.5
112.52×100=1265625112.5^2 \times 100 = 1265625
fx2=54165.625+143203.125+275625+402453.125+635859.375+911421.875+1131612.5+1265625=4819965.625\sum fx^2 = 54165.625 + 143203.125 + 275625 + 402453.125 + 635859.375 + 911421.875 + 1131612.5 + 1265625 = 4819965.625
The variance is given by
σ2=fx2f(fxf)2=fx2nμ2\sigma^2 = \frac{\sum fx^2}{\sum f} - (\frac{\sum fx}{\sum f})^2 = \frac{\sum fx^2}{n} - \mu^2
σ2=4819965.625465(101.4032)210365.51710282.608=82.909\sigma^2 = \frac{4819965.625}{465} - (101.4032)^2 \approx 10365.517 - 10282.608 = 82.909
σ=82.909=9.105\sigma = \sqrt{82.909} = 9.105
The coefficient of variation (CV) is the ratio of the standard deviation to the mean, expressed as a percentage:
CV=σμ×100=9.105101.40×100=8.979%CV = \frac{\sigma}{\mu} \times 100 = \frac{9.105}{101.40} \times 100 = 8.979\%

3. Final Answer

Mean = 101.40
Coefficient of Variation = 8.98%
