 f_ix_i
0-6 11 3 33
6-10 10 8 80
10-14 7 12 84
14-20 4 17 68
20-28 4 24 96
28-38 3 33 99

\sum f_i 

=40

  

\sum f_ix_i

=499

Mean, 

\overline x = \frac{\sum f_ix_i}{\sum f_i}
= \frac{499}{40} = 12.475= \frac{499}{40} = 12.475\approx 12.48
Therefore, the mean number of days a student was absent is 12.48 days.
