To find the mean, add all the numbers together and divide by the amount of numbers there are

2 + 5 + 3 + 9 + 7 = 26

26/5 = 5.2

C. 5.2 is your mean

hope this helps

Hey there!

Here is your answer:

The proper answer to this question is option C "5.2".

Reason:

First put the numbers from least to greatest:

2,3,5,7,9

The mean would be the middle number of the set.

Which would be 5.2!

Therefore the answer is option C

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!
