Out of 100 numbers, 20 are 4's, 40 are 5's, 30 are 6's, and the remaining are 7's. The arithmetic mean of the numbers is:

The correct answer is

5.3

To calculate the arithmetic mean, we use the formula:

Mean = (Σ(xi * fi)) / N

Where xi is the value, fi is the frequency, and N is the total number of observations. Substituting the values:

Mean = [(20 * 4) + (40 * 5) + (30 * 6) + (10 * 7)] / 100 = 530 / 100 = 5.3
