Age (in years) Number of people rescued ($f_i$) $x_i$ $u_i$ $f_iu_i$
$10-20$ $9$ $15$ $-3$ $-27$
$20-30$ $14$ $25$ $-2$ $-28$
$30-40$ $15$ $35$ $-1$ $-15$
$40-50$ $21$ $45$ $0$ $0$
$50-60$ $23$ $55$ $1$ $23$
$60-70$ $12$ $65$ $2$ $24$
$70-80$ $6$ $75$ $3$ $18$
Total $100$ $-5$
Mean Age $= 45 + \frac{(-5)}{100} \times 10$
$= 44.5$
Hence, mean age is $44.5$ years
