The mean, or average, is the sum of a set of numbers divided by the number of numbers in the set. For example:
1+3+4+5=13
The set consists of 4 numbers (1, 3, 4, 5); the sum of these numbers is 13. The mean or average is the sum (13) divided by the number of numbers in the set (4) -- 13/4
13/4=3.25
The mean is 3.25.
Trying again.. Here's the set: 1 3 4 7 9 There are 5 numbers in this set.
Add the numbers together and divide that sum by the numbers in the set.
