Given The following data set:

50 60 80

90 50 70

40 50 80

We will find the mean of the data as follows:


mean=\frac{sum\text{ }of\text{ }the\text{ }data}{number\text{ }of\text{ }the\text{ }data}

We will find the sum of the data as follows:


sum=50+60+80+90+50+70+40+50+80=570

The number of the data = 9

So, the mean will be as follows:


mean=(570)/(9)=63.333

Rounding to the nearest tenth

So, the answer will be The mean = 63.3
