Detailed Solution

Given table is,
Question ImageConsider the table,
Question ImageFrom the table we will find the midpoint of the classes which will be x i   and from then we will find x i f i   from the table.
 The total sum of all the frequency is:
f i =12+15+32+p+13 f i =72+p   The total sum of all the x i f i   is :
  x i f i =120+450+1600+70p+1170 x i f =3340+70p  
Therefore,
x ¯ = f i x i f i x ¯ = 3340+70p 72+p   We already know that the mean is 53.
Therefore, putting the mean in the formula we will find the value of mean in the formula we have:
  53 = 3340+70p 72+p 53×(72+p) =3340+70p 3816+53p =3340+70p 70p53p =38163340 17p =476 p = 476 17 p =28  
The value of p is 28.
Therefore, option 4 is correct.
