26 is a part of the whole. the proportion should be set up:

(26/x) = (5/100) It's the overall enrollment that is being asked.

If you also need to solve: Cross multiply, 26(100) = 5x, 2600 = 5x, divide both sides by 5, 520 is the enrollment

Number of data values: 1007
kogti [31]

Answer:

The arithmetic mean is 10.9

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the arithmetic mean using the information given.

The arithmetic mean or otherwise called the average is the sum of all the values in a given set divided by the number of elements or count of the elements in that particular data set

Mathematically, the arithmetic mean can be found by dividing the sum of the data values by the number of data values.

In equation form, we have Arithmetic -mean = \frac{sum of data values}{number of data values}

Inserting the values, we have Arithmetic mean = 10998/1007 = 10.92 which is 10.9 to the nearest tenth
