Hey there!


Formula:

SUM of all numbers / TOTAL numbers you have in your data plot


EQUATION:

(10 + 10 + 13 + 14 + 16 + 19 + 23) / 7

10 + 10 + 13 + 14 + 16 + 19 + 23
= 20 + 13 + 14 + 16 + 19 + 23

= 33 + 14 + 16 + 19 + 23

= 47 + 16 + 19 + 23

= 63 + 19 + 23

= 82 + 23

= 105


105 / 7

= 15


So, therefore the answer is: Naeem's Work. Start fraction 10, 10, 13, 14, 16, 19, 23 Over 7 end fraction = StartFraction 105 Over 7 end fraction = 15 (Option A.)


Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
