In statistics, 'the assumed mean' is a method for calculating the arithmetic mean and standard deviation of a data set. It simplifies calculating accurate values by hand.
During the application of the short-cut method for finding the mean, the deviation d, are divisible by a common number ‘h’. In this case, the di = xi – A is reduced to a great extent as 'di' becomes dih. In this method, we divide the deviations by the same number to simplify calculations. The deviation is di=xi−A
