Q

There are 100 random samples were taken from the large population. A particular numerical characteristic of sampled items was measured. The results of the measurements were as follows:

45 measurements were between 0.85 and 0.900
0.901 was observed once
0.902 was observed three times
0.903 was observed twice
0.904 was observed four times

The smallest value was 0.859 and the largest value was 0.958.

The Sum of all the 100 measurements was 91.170. Except for those noted, no measurements occurred more than twice.

What is the mean of the given problem above?
