Answer:

a.  £24,714.29

b. £16,833.33

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of mean income is given below:-

Mean income = Total addition of salaries ÷ Number of workers

= £9,500 + £25,000 + £13,250 + £72,000 + £12,750 + £29,500 + £11,000

= £173,000 ÷ 7

= £24,714.29

Now,

the Mean income excluding Deva's salary:

= Formula of Mean income

= Total addition of salaries excluding Deva salary ÷ Number of workers

= (£9,500 + £25,000 + £13,250 + £12,750 + £29,500 + £11,000) ÷ 6

= £101,000 ÷ 6

= £16,833.33
