Question

Find the mean of 6, 9, 4, 1, 7, 3 and please explain to me how you are solving step by step i would really appreciate it

Answer 1

Given the following numbers

`6,9,4,1,7,3`

The above data are ungrouped.

To find the mean, the formula is

`\begin{gathered} Mean=(x_1+x_2+x_3+\cdots+x_n)/(n) \\ \bar{x}=\frac{\sum^{}_{}x}{n} \end{gathered}`

Where n is the number of values

Substituting the values into the formula to find the mean

`\begin{gathered} n=6 \\ \bar{x}=(6+9+4+1+7+3)/(6) \\ \bar{x}=(30)/(6) \\ \bar{x}=5 \end{gathered}`

Hence, the mean is 5
