Chapter A, Problem 1YT

To determine

To calculate: The mean of the given data 13, 19, 6, 11, 28 and 37.

Answer to Problem 1YT

Solution:

The mean of a set of numbers 13, 19, 6, 11, 28 and 37 is 19.

Explanation of Solution

Given Information:

The given data is 13, 19, 6, 11, 28 and 37.

Formula used:

Mean:

The mean of a set of numbers is computed by adding all the numbers and then, dividing the total of all values by the number of addends.

Calculation:

Consider the set of numbers;

13, 19, 6, 11, 28 and 37

The number of addends in the given data is 6.

Evaluate the mean of the given data as follows.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Mean}=\frac{13+19+6+11+28+37}{6}\\ =\frac{114}{6}\\ =19\end{array}$

Therefore, the mean of the given data is 19.
