How do you find the mean in a frequency distribution table? - Answers

A Gaussian distribution has the mean at the highest value. Sum all the values and divide by the number of values. * * * * * A very partial answer and one that does not address the question which was in the context of a frequency distribution table. If the frequencies are for grouped data, replace the range of each group by its midpoint. This, then, comprises the set of values, x, for the random variable. For each x there is an associated frequency, f. Multiply each x by its frequency and add these together. Divide the answer by the sum of the f values. That is the mean.
