Answer:

The mean is basically the average.

In order to find avergae you add up all the given numbers and then divide it by the amount of given numbers.

in this case…

5 + 10 + 8 + 9 + 9 +9 = 50

There are 6 given values, which are 5, 10, 8, 9, 9, 9.

We divide 50 (the total number) by the given amount (6).

50/ 6 = 8.33333…

Your answer is 8.3
