Arithmetic Mean:

Method Un-group data Group data

Direct method ∑ 𝑥𝑖 ∑ 𝑓𝑖 𝑥𝑖
𝑥̅ = 𝑥̅ =
𝑛 𝑛
Here, 𝑛 = ∑ 𝑓𝑖
Indirect method or, Step ∑ 𝑑𝑖 ∑ 𝑑𝑖
𝑥̅ = 𝐴 + =𝐴+
Deviation Method 𝑛 𝑛
Where, 𝑑𝑖 = 𝑋𝑖 − 𝐴 𝑋𝑖 −𝐴
Where, 𝑑𝑖 =
And, A is the provisional or, ℎ
assumed mean And, A is the provisional or,
assumed mean and “h” is class
interval
Weighted arithmetic mean For relatively importance ∑ 𝑤𝑖 𝑥𝑖
𝑥̅𝑤 =
data ∑ 𝑤𝑖
Combined arithmetic mean For two or more group data 𝑛1 𝑥̅1 + 𝑛1 𝑥̅1
𝑥̅𝑐 =
𝑛1 + 𝑛2
