Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x and x + 16 the result of adding 16 to it, then

the ratio of the result to the original is

\frac{x+16}{x} = \frac{4}{3} ( cross- multiply )

4x = 3(x + 16)  = 3x + 48 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

x = 48

damaskus [11]

The mean of a data set is equal to the sum of the set of numbers divided by how many numbers are in the set.

Start by adding the numbers to get 30.

Now, divide by the number of numbers in the set.

So we have 30 ÷ 6 which is 5.

So the mean is 5.
