As we learned

 

Discrete frequency distribution -

A representation of data in which each outcome is paired with its frequency is called a frequency distribution.

ex :   x :    0    1    2    3    4    5

         f :     2    4    4    6    4    5

-

 

 Here mean A=5

Let the frequency of 8 be x. Then by the formula

A=\frac{\sum xf}{\sum f}

5=\frac{1.2+2.3+4.3+6.2+8.x}{2+3+3+2+x}= \frac{32+8x}{10+x}

or         18 = 3x;  x = 6.
