Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:


\begin{gathered} 8.13,8,20.8,18,19\Rightarrow n=5 \\ \operatorname{mean}=(\Sigma x)/(n)=(8.13+8+20.8+18+19)/(5)=(73.93)/(5)=14.786 \\ \operatorname{mean}=14.8(ToTheNearestTenth) \\ \end{gathered}

The mean number of hours for these students is 14.8 hours
