Answer 1

Answer:

mean is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

MEAN

mean is regarded as the average number of items

mean formula:

(sum of terms) / (number of terms)

Firstly

the numbers in the data set are :

3,3,3,4,6,6,7,8

they are already arranged in order, so no need to rearrange.

Next

add the numbers together to find the total :

3 +3 +3 +4 +6+ 6+7 +8

= 40

ALSO,

find how many number of terms they are --- this is 8

Last

use the mean formula to solve :

(sum of terms) / (number of terms)

= 40/8

= 5

the mean is the 5
