Each of students reported the number of movies they saw in the past year. Here is what they reported. 7, 6, 15, 16, 4, 8, 19 Find the mean number of movies that the students saw. If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Respuesta :

The mean of a dataset is computed in two simple steps:

  • Sum all the elements in the dataset
  • Divide this sum by how many elements there are

In this case, the sum would be

[tex]7+6+15+16+4+8+19=75[/tex]

And there are 7 elements in this dataset. So, if you divide the sum of the elements by the number of elements, you'll get the mean.
