  1. [tex]\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}[/tex]

    Given data is

    Let marks obtained be represented as x and number of students is represented as f.

    So,

    [tex] \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \begin{gathered} \begin{array}{|c|c|} \bf{x} & \bf{f} \\ 30 & 45 \\35 & 26 \\40 & 12 \\45 & 10 \\50 & 7 \end{array}\end{gathered}[/tex]

    Calculation of Mean :-

    [tex]\begin{gathered}\begin{gathered}\begin{gathered}\boxed{\begin{array}{c|c|c}\sf x&\sf \: f&\sf \:fx\\\frac{\qquad \qquad}{}&\frac{\qquad \qquad}{}&\frac{\qquad \qquad}{}\\\sf 30&\sf 45&\sf1350\\\\\sf 35&\sf 26&\sf910\\\\\sf 40 &\sf 12&\sf480\\\\\sf 45&\sf 10&\sf450 \\\\\sf 50&\sf 7&\sf350\\\frac{\qquad}{}&\frac{\qquad}{}&\frac{\qquad \qquad}{}\\\sf & \sf & \end{array}}\end{gathered}\end{gathered}\end{gathered}[/tex]

    So, we have

    [tex]\rm :\longmapsto\: \sum \: fx = 3540[/tex]

    [tex]\rm :\longmapsto\: \sum \: f = 100[/tex]

    Hence,

    Mean using Direct Method is

    [tex]\red{\rm :\longmapsto\:Mean = \dfrac{ \sum \: fx}{ \sum \: f}}[/tex]

    [tex] \rm \: \: = \: \dfrac{3540}{100} [/tex]

    [tex] \rm \: \: = \: 35.4[/tex]

    Additional Information :-

    Mean using Short Cut Method

    [tex]\red{\rm :\longmapsto\:Mean =A + \dfrac{ \sum \: fd}{ \sum \: f}}[/tex]

    Mean using Step Deviation Method

    [tex]\red{\rm :\longmapsto\:Mean =A + \dfrac{ \sum \: fu}{ \sum \: f} \times h}[/tex]
