Answer:

Julia found 5 coins

Explanation:

lets take the # of coins julia found as "x"

alice found6

davi found 5

lucas found 6

and carter found 8

remember how to calculate mean( add all numbers and divide by the# of numbers)

so

6+5+6+8+x/5=6 (since there are "5" terms)

so

25+x/5=6

treat this like a linear equation so multiply by 5 on both sides

25+x/5(5)=6(5)

25+x=30

subtract "25 on both sides"

25-25+x=30-25

x=5

hope this helps
