What is the mean for this set of numbers?
49, 50, 45, 23, 35, 66, 34, 74, 54, 50
The mean (average) for this set of numbers is:
(49 + 50 + 45 + 23 + 35 + 66 + 34 + 74 + 54 + 50) ÷ 10 = 45.6
To find the mean (average) for a set of numbers, you need to add them all up and then divide the sum by the total number of values in the set.
Step 1: Add up all the numbers:
49 + 50 + 45 + 23 + 35 + 66 + 34 + 74 + 54 + 50 = 470
Step 2: Count the total number of values in the set, which is 10.
Step 3: Divide the sum of the numbers by the total number of values:
470 ÷ 10 = 47
Therefore, the mean of the given set of numbers is 47.
