As given by the question

There are given that the survey of 7 students:


6,\text{ 5, 16, 3, 12, 15, 8}

Now,

From the formula to find the mean:


\operatorname{mean}=\frac{\text{Addition of the total given data}}{\text{Total number of data}}

Then,


\operatorname{mean}=(6+5+16+3+12+15+8)/(7)

Then,


\begin{gathered} \operatorname{mean}=(6+5+16+3+12+15+8)/(7) \\ \operatorname{mean}=(65)/(7) \\ \operatorname{mean}=9.3 \end{gathered}

Hence, the mean travel time is 9.3 minutes
