Answer:

C) 192.11

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean of any group of numbers, you simply add up all the numbers and then divide by how many numbers there are.

Using a calculator or a pencil, add the following:

180 + 220 + 240 + 196 + 175 + 183 + 195 + 140 + 200

= 1,729

The last step is to divide 1,729 by 9:

1,729 ÷ 9 = 192.11
