The mean of the first ten even natural numbers is:

Correct option is C

Given:

We need to find the mean of the first ten even natural numbers.

Formula Used:

Mean =$$\frac{\text{(Sum of all observations) }}{\text{ (Number of observations)}}$$

Solution:

Sum = 2 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 10 + 12 + 14 + 16 + 18 + 20 = 110

Mean = $$\frac{110}{10} = 11$$​​

Alternate Method:

First term = 2

Last term = 20

Mean = $$\frac{\text{(First term + Last term) }} 2$$​​

Mean $$=\frac{ (2 + 20) }{ 2} =\frac{ 22 } 2$$​= 11
