Question

The mean of the following series is ______. (rounded off to three decimal places) 

$0.01, 0.02, 0.03, \cdots \cdots, 1$

Series Mean Calculation

The question asks for the mean of the series: $0.01, 0.02, 0.03, \cdots \cdots, 1$. This is an arithmetic progression.

Arithmetic Progression Properties

To find the mean of an arithmetic progression, we can use the formula:

$ \text{Mean} = \frac{\text{First Term} + \text{Last Term}}{2} $

Identifying Series Terms

  • First Term ($a$) = $0.01$
  • Last Term ($l$) = $1$

Calculating the Mean

  1. Substitute the values into the formula:

    $ \text{Mean} = \frac{0.01 + 1}{2} $

  2. Simplify the expression:

    $ \text{Mean} = \frac{1.01}{2} $

  3. Calculate the final value:

    $ \text{Mean} = 0.505 $

The question requires the answer rounded to three decimal places. The calculated mean $0.505$ is already in this format.

Final Result

The mean of the series is 0.505.
