Answer:

5km

Explanation:

Do not let the number line fool you, instead take the numbers from teh numberline. Because mean is the numebrs added up and divided by the number of numbers there are in the data. If we take 4+4 (two 4s on number lines) and add 7, we get 15 and because there are 3 numbers we divide by 3 to get 5km

The mean would be 5
Reason for this is that the mean is when all data is summed up then divided by how many data points there are
So 4+4+7=15
Then divide by 3 would equal 5
I hope this helps!
