Correct Answer - Option 3 : 20

Given:

Coefficient of variation (CV) is 20

Variance is 16

Concept

The coefficient of variation (CV)  is defined as the ratio of the standard deviation  to the mean 
CV = \(\rm \rm \frac{\sigma }{\mu }\) × 100

Calculation:

Standard deviation (σ) = 4

⇒ CV = \(\rm \frac{\sigma }{\mu }\) × 100

⇒ 20 = \(\rm \frac{4}{\mu }\) × 100

∴ The arithmetic mean is: 20
