The question is worded weirdly, but the mean (average) is 3.3. The median is 4. The median would probably represent this better.

Explanation:

The median is found by adding all of the numbers in the data set and then dividing by how many numbers there are.

The median is the middle number, which you find by alternately crossing out the biggest and smallest numbers.

Hope this helps!
