Question

Omar buys five shirts for $22 each, three pairs of pants for $50 each, and six ties for $17 each. What is the mean amount that he spent per article of clothing?

Answer 1

mean = $29.67

To do this you add up all the numbers together and divide it by how many number there are. For this situation, because there is 3 numbers you would divide the number by 3.

Answer 2

Answer: $26.5

Step-by-step explanation:

From this question, we list out the data set

Data set = [22,22,22,22,22,50,50,50,17,17,17,17,17]

Mean amount spent per article of clothing = total sum of amount/frequency of amount

Mean = 345 /13

=$26.5

I hope this helps.
