Aziz wonders how many pieces of pizza people tend to eat at a pizza party. He surveys 10 people at the end of a pizza party and asks them how many pieces of pizza they ate. Following is a list of his results. Find the interpret the mean of his data. Number of pieces of pizza eaten: 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6.

Answer 1

To find the mean, we first need to add up all the numbers and then divide by the total number of data points (which in this case is 10).

1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 6 = 35

Now, we divide by 10:

35 / 10 = 3.5

So, the mean number of pieces of pizza eaten at the pizza party is 3.5. This means that on average, people tend to eat about 3.5 pieces of pizza at a pizza party according to Aziz's survey.
