The mean score is calculated by adding up all the scores and dividing by the total number of games played.
Total score = 3 + 17 + 10 + 6 + 25 + 17 + 34 + 30 + 13 + 27 + 3 + 0 + 21 + 17 + 13 + 20 + 15 + 20 + 29 + 27 = 338
Total number of games played = 19
Mean score = 338/19 = 17.789
Rounded off to two decimal places, the mean score is 17.79.
Therefore, the closest option is 18.6. The correct answer is B. 18.6.
