Answer:

Option B: 0.4

Explanation:

We have 20 dots.

Such that each column represents the repetitions for each proportion.

So:

0.1 -> 3 times

0.2 -> 1 time

0.3 -> 4 times

0.4 -> 6 times

0.5 -> 3 times

0.6 -> 3 times

Now we can compute the mean of these values, and that will be the best estimation we can make with the given data.

Remember that for a set of N values:

{x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ}

The mean is:


M = (x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_n)/(N)

In this case we have the set of 20 points described above, then the mean is:


M = (3*0.1 + 1*0.2 + 4*0.3 + 6*0.4 + 3*0.5 + 3*0.6)/(20) = 0.37

Rounding to the first place after the decimal point, we get:

M = 0.4

Then the correct option is option B.
