Answer:

Mean = 47.52 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the following method to find the mean

Class interval     Frequency(f)     Class Mark(X)     fx

40-44                      3                              42               126

45-49                      4                              47               188

50-54                     10                             52               520

55-59                      6                              57               342

60-64                      2                              62               124

.........................................................................................................

                               25                                                1188

.........................................

The formula for mean is:

Mean = ∑fx / ∑f

= 1188/25

= 47.52 degrees

The computed mean is less than the actual mean of 51.8 degrees ..
