To calculate the mean from the frequency distribution table, we will follow these steps:

### 1. Determine the midpoints (class marks) for each class interval.
The midpoint for each class interval is calculated by averaging the lower and upper boundaries of the interval:

\[
\text{Midpoint} = \frac{\text{Lower boundary} + \text{Upper boundary}}{2}
\]

So, let's calculate:

- For \(60-69\): \( \frac{60 + 69}{2} = 64.5 \)
- For \(70-79\): \( \frac{70 + 79}{2} = 74.5 \)
- For \(80-89\): \( \frac{80 + 89}{2} = 84.5 \)
- For \(90-99\): \( \frac{90 + 99}{2} = 94.5 \)

### 2. Multiply the midpoints by their respective frequencies to get the products.

\[
\text{Product} = \text{Midpoint} \times \text{Frequency}
\]

- For \(60-69\) (Midpoint = 64.5, Frequency = 20): \( 64.5 \times 20 = 1290 \)
- For \(70-79\) (Midpoint = 74.5, Frequency = 18): \( 74.5 \times 18 = 1341 \)
- For \(80-89\) (Midpoint = 84.5, Frequency = 5): \( 84.5 \times 5 = 422.5 \)
- For \(90-99\) (Midpoint = 94.5, Frequency = 2): \( 94.5 \times 2 = 189 \)

### 3. Sum the products and the frequencies.

\[
\text{Sum of products} = 1290 + 1341 + 422.5 + 189 = 3242.5
\]
\[
\text{Sum of frequencies} = 20 + 18 + 5 + 2 = 45
\]

### 4. Calculate the mean.

\[
\text{Mean} = \frac{\text{Sum of products}}{\text{Sum of frequencies}} = \frac{3242.5}{45} \approx 72.06
\]

Thus, the mean of the data is approximately **72.06**.
