Mean: The "average" number; found by adding all data
points and dividing by the number of data points.

1. What is the Mean of these numbers?


6, 11, 7

Add the numbers: 6 + 11 + 7 = 24

Divide by how many numbers (there are 3 numbers): 24 / 3 = 8

The Mean is 8

2. Look at these numbers:


3, 7, 5, 13, 20, 23, 39, 23, 40, 23, 14, 12, 56, 23, 29
The sum of these numbers is 330
There are fifteen numbers.
The mean is equal to 330 / 15 = 22

The mean of the above numbers is 22

3. Find the mean of these numbers:


3, −7, 5, 13, −2

The sum of these numbers is 3 − 7 + 5 + 13 − 2 = 12

There are 5 numbers.

The mean is equal to 12 ÷ 5 = 2.4

The mean of the above numbers is 2.4


Here is how to do it one line:
Mean = 3 − 7 + 5 + 13 − 25 = 125 = 2.4
