You can divide 9 by \frac{3}{5} to find the amount of pins, (let's call this number x), you can make with 9 $ ft$ of ribbon.

x=9 \div \frac{3}{5} \\ \\  x= \frac{9}{1} \div \frac{3}{5} \\ \\ x= \frac{9}{1} \times \frac{5}{3} \\ \\ x= \frac{9 \times 5}{1 \times 3} \\ \\ x= \frac{45}{3} \\ \\ x=15

So, 15 pins can be made.

Answer:

2.18

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the most familiar average. It is defined as a value obtained by dividing the sum of all observations by their number. It is calculated as

Mean = Sum of all the observations/ Number of the observations

Mean= x₁+x₂+...............+xₐ/n

Where x₁,x₂,...............,xₐ refer to different values of x and n is the sample size.

Mean= 2+1+2+2+2+2+1+3+3+3+3/11= 24/11= 2.18

The mean may correspond to a population or a sample from a population.

The population mean is a fixed quantity where as the sample mean is a variable quantity because different samples from the same population tend to have different means.
