  • (B) $CU = 100 \left[1 + \frac{\sum |x_i - \bar{x}|}{n \bar{x}}\right]$
  • (C) $CU = 100 \frac{\bar{x}}{\sum x_i}$
  • (D) $CU = \frac{\sum x_i}{n}$

Answer Key:

A

Step-by-Step Solution & Explanation

Christiansen's $CU = 100 [1 - \frac{\sum |x_i - \bar{x}|}{n \bar{x}}]$, where $x_i$ is depth caught in catch-can $i$, $\bar{x}$ is mean depth, and $n$ is number of cans.
