Question

What is the mean of the set of numbers?



{–8, –4, –3, –11}

Answer 1

To find the mean of a set of numbers, you simply add them together and then divide by the amount of number.

In this case, there's four numbers.

-8 + (-4) + (-3) + (-11) = -26

-26/4 = -6.5

The mean, or average, of the set of data is -6.5.
