What is the mean of the following set?
35, 40, 32, 36
A.
35.75
B.
27.8
C.
25.75
D.
44.75
To find the mean of a set of numbers, you add up all the numbers in the set and divide by the total number of values.
35 + 40 + 32 + 36 = 143
There are 4 numbers in the set, so we divide 143 by 4 to find the mean.
143/4 = 35.75
Therefore, the mean of the set is 35.75, so the correct answer is A. 35.75.
