Answer:

Well, you find the mean by adding up all the totals then dividing by how many sets of the totals you have. the mean gives you the average of the whole data set, which can be helpful to know when you are maybe trying to raise awareness for something and you want to know the average, I don't know, animals killed in the forest fire, sadly.
