HELP Find the mean of the data in the bar chart below.

Hey there!

The word “mean” simply means “average” in mathematics. So when your teacher/instructor asks you find the mean, think they are talking about the total/average.

To find your “mean” or “average” you have to: find the SUM of all your numbers & DIVIDE it by the total numbers you have in your particular data plot.

SUM: 5 + 6 + 5 + 6 + 9

TOTAL number of numbers you have in your question: 5

YOUR EQUATION:

(5 + 6 + 5 + 6 + 9) / 5

(5 + 6 + 5 + 6 + 9) / 5

= 11 + 5 + 6 + 9 / 5

= 16 + 6 + 9 / 5

= 22 + 9 / 5

= 31 / 5 ≈ 6.2

Therefore, your answer is: 31/5 or 6.2

EITHER OF THESE SHOULD WORK!

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Basic concept:

mean is when you add the numbers and divide by how many there are

Step-by-step explanation:

the numbers:

5 6 5 6 9        add them up      which is 31

there are 5 numbers

now do 31/5 which is   6.2

34

step-by-step explanation:

the answer would be 1 1/72

step-by-step explanation:

you can rewrite the equation by separating the parts and then solving individually:

10-9=1

1/8 - 1/9=

find l c d and then combine:

1 1/72
