"Mean" is another way of saying average.
To find the average/mean, add up all the numbers and then divide by the amount of numbers that are in the data set.

Step 1: Add the numbers.
0 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 5 + 6
= 15

Step 2: Divide the sum by the amount of numbers in the set.
There are 6 numbers in the data set.
Their sum is 15.
Divide 15 by 6.
15 / 6
= 2.5

Answer:
The mean, also known as average, of this data set is 2.5.

Hope this helps!
