Solution:

class $x_{i}$ $f_{i}$ $f_{I}x_{I}$ $d_{I}=\frac{x_{i}-a}{h}$ $f_{i}d_{I}$ $d_{I}^{2}$ $f_{I}d_{I}^{2}$
0-5 2.5 6 15 -2 -12 4 24
5-10 7.5 10 75 -1 -10 1 10
10-15 12.5 12 150 0 0 0 0
15-20 17.5 10 175 1 10 1 10
20-25 22.5 8 180 2 16 4 32
46 595 5 76

$Mean \overline{x}=\frac{\sum f_{i} x_{i}}{N}=\frac{595}{46}=12.935$

$S.D. =\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sum f_{i} d_{i}^{2}}{N}-\left(\frac{\sum f_{i} d_{i}}{N}\right)^{2}} \times h$

$(S . D .=\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{76}{46}-\left(\frac{4}{46}\right)^{2}} \times 5$

$S.D. $=\sigma=6.412$ $Coefficient of variance =\frac{\sigma}{\bar{x}} \times 100$ $$ =\frac{6.412}{12.935} \times 100 $$

$=49.57$
