The ages in years of randomly selected employees are 34,41,28,35,27,44,48,29,33,39. Determine the mean age
A. 37.8
B. 35.8
C. 36.8
D. 39.8
To determine the mean age, we first add up all the ages:
34 + 41 + 28 + 35 + 27 + 44 + 48 + 29 + 33 + 39 = 358
Next, we divide the sum by the number of employees (which is 10 in this case) to find the mean age:
Mean = 358 / 10 = 35.8
Therefore, the mean age is 35.8.
So the correct answer is:
B. 35.8
