U should add all the #s together so... it = 11.3
then divide by the # of terms. so...... 11.3/ 14= 0.9357 (rounded makes 0.94)


So .... B

Answer: Option B 0.94 is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is the sum of given observations divided by the total observations given. It is also the average or arithmetic average of observations.

Here we have sum of observations is 1+0.5+0.3+0+0+0+1.2+3+0+1.1+0.7+2+1.3+2 = 13.1

and total observations are 14


mean=\frac{\text{sum of observations}} {\text{total observation}}

Now we substitute the values of sum of observation and total observation into above formula and we get

Mean =
(13.1)/(14) = 0.93571
\approx 0.94

Hence, mean = 0.94

So, option B is correct
