Which value of hFE do I use?

combination of the following hFE: max. hFE,
min. hFE, or typ. hFE. Use typical value if
there is one. Otherwise, use
hFE (ave)  hFE (min)  hFE (max)

Example 7.9
A voltage-divider bias circuit has the following values:
R1 = 1.5 k, R2 = 680 , RC = 260 , RE = 240  and
VCC = 10 V. Assuming the transistor is a 2N3904,

Stability of Voltage Divider
Bias Circuit
The Q-point of voltage divider bias circuit is less
dependent on hFE than that of the base bias (fixed
bias).
For example, if IE is exactly 10 mA, the range of hFE is
100 to 300. Then
At hFE  100, I B 
