$${mean}\:=\:\frac{{S}_{{n}} }{{n}}\:=\:\frac{\frac{\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{2}}\left(\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{100}\right)}{\mathrm{100}}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×\mathrm{101}=\mathrm{50}.\mathrm{5} \\ $$$${then}\:{mean}\:{of}\:{data}\::\:\mathrm{5},\mathrm{7},\mathrm{9},…,\mathrm{203} \\ $$$$\:\begin{cases}{\mathrm{203}=\mathrm{5}+\left({n}−\mathrm{1}\right)\mathrm{2}\Rightarrow{n}=\mathrm{100}}\\{{mean}=\frac{\frac{\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{2}}\left(\mathrm{5}+\mathrm{203}\right)}{\mathrm{100}}=\:\mathrm{104}}\end{cases} \\ $$
