Final answer:

To find the mean number of songs enjoyed, add all the values and divide by the number of students, which in this case is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the mean of a sample, you sum up all the values in the sample and then divide by the number of values. Let's apply this to the number of songs from Kendrick Lamar enjoyed by the six Learn4Life students: 4, 10, 7, 2, 12, 7.

  1. Add up the numbers: 4 + 10 + 7 + 2 + 12 + 7 = 42.
  2. Divide the sum by the number of students: 42 ÷ 6 = 7.

The mean number of songs enjoyed by Kendrick Lamar by these six students is 7.
