Answer 1

3.6666666.... and continuing

or 3.7 if you want to round

Explanation:

To find the mean, I added all the numbers up:

4+3+1+ 6+ 1+7 = 22

Then I divided that by how many numbers there are total (6).

22/6= 3.66666.. or 3.6 with a bar symbol on top of the 6.

Thus, the answer is 3.666666...
