Students at Hampton Middle School sold T-shirts as a school fundraiser. Sylvie asked 12 random seventh-grade students how many T-shirts they sold for the fundraiser. The number of T-shirts each student sold is listed below.
3, 4, 8, 5, 2, 5, 0, 5, 3, 4, 3, 7

What is the mean of the data set rounded to the nearest tenth?
4.0 shirts
4.1 shirts
4.5 shirts
4.9 shirts

Answer 1

Answer:

4.1 shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean can be found by adding all data points and dividing that by the total amount of data points.

There are 12 students selling shirt, which gives you 12 data points.

So (3+4+8+5+2+5+0+5+3+4+3+7)/12 = 4.083...

Which rounds to 4.1 shirts
