Answer: 23.9


Explanation:

1. First, you must calculate the mean, as following:


(12+16+22+23+34+44+46+47+48+64+67+73+83+89)/(14)=47.71

2. Now, you should substract the means obtained to every single number of the set and then square it. Add all of them:


(12-47.71)^(2)+(16-47.71)^(2)+(22-47.71)^(2)+(23-47.71)^(2)+(34-47.71)^(2)+(44-47.71)^(2)+(46-47.71)^(2)+(47-47.71)^(2)+(48-47.71)^(2)+(64-47.71)^(2)+(67-47.71)^(2)+(73-47.71)^(2)+(83-47.71)^(2)+(89-47.71)^(2)=7984.86

3. The mean of this is:


(7984.8574)/(14)=570.35

4. The square root of this result is:


√(2.52)=23.88

5. To the nearest tenth, the result is: 23.9
