Question

Spencer surveyed five of his friends to find out how many pets they have. His results are shown in the table below. What is the mean number of pets? Lara has 4, Cody has 2, Sam has 5, Ella has 1, Maria has 3​

Answer 1

3

Explanation:

You add the total number of pets, and get 15. Then divide it by the number of people and get 3.

Answer 2

Answer: The mean is 3

Step-by-step explanation: In order to find the mean, you must add all the numbers (4+2+5+1+3) and then in this problem, you have to divide it by five since Spencer surveyed only five of his friends.

4+2+5+1+3=15

15 divided by 5 equals 3
