Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean is the average of the numbers. Add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are. In other words it is the sum divided by the count.
7 + 14 + 7 + 16 + 16 = 60
60 / 5 = 12
Well, when you want to make 15 a percentage, You need to know of what, for an example, 20 percent of 100 is 20% percent because 20/100= 0.20 which equals 20%. What is 15 of? Fill in the blank. 15 percent of ___=? which would be 15/?

Step-by-step explanation:
This pattern of question is always coming up. Since we can't easily guess, then let us set up simultaneous equation for the statements.
let the two numbers be x and y.
Multiply to 44. x*y = 44 ..........(a)
Add up to 12. x + y = 12 .........(b)
From (b)
y = 12 - x .......(c)
Substitute (c) into (a)
x*y = 44
x*(12 - x) = 44
12x - x² = 44
-x² + 12x = 44
-x² + 12x - 44 = 0.
Multiply both sides by -1
-1(-x² + 12x - 44) = -1*0
x² - 12x + 44 = 0.
This does not look factorizable, so let us just use quadratic formula
comparing to ax² + bx + c = 0, x² - 12x + 44 = 0, a = 1, b = -12, c = 44
x = (-b + √(b² - 4ac)) /2a or (-b - √(b² - 4ac)) /2a
x = (-(-12) + √((-12)² - 4*1*44) )/ (2*1)
x = (12 + √(144 - 176) )/ 2
x = (12 + √-32 )/ 2
√-32 = √(-1 *32) = √-1 * √32 = i * √(16 *2) = i*√16 *√2 = i*4*√2 = 4i√2
Where i is a complex number. Note the equation has two values. We shall include the second, that has negative sign before the square root.
x = (12 + √-32 )/ 2 or (12 - √-32 )/ 2
x = (12 + 4i√2 )/ 2 (12 - 4i√2 )/ 2
x = 12/2 + (4i√2)/2 12/2 - (4i√2)/2
x = 6 + 2i√2 or 6 - 2i√2
Recall equation (c):
y = 12 - x, When x = 6 + 2i√2, y = 12 - (6 + 2i√2) = 12 - 6 - 2i√2 = 6 - 2i√2
When x = 6 - 2i√2, y = 12 - (6 - 2i√2) = 12 - 6 + 2i√2 = 6 + 2i√2
x = 6 + 2i√2, y = 6 - 2i√2
x = 6 - 2i√2, y = 6 + 2i√2
Therefore the two numbers that multiply to 44 and add up to 12 are:
6 + 2i√2 and 6 - 2i√2
