A study collected data on green sea turtles inhabiting a lagoon. The data on curved carapace​ (shell) length, measured in​ centimeters, for 76 captured turtles are displayed in the accompanying table. Environmentalists want to estimate the true mean shell length of all green sea turtles in the lagoon. Use the data to find a point estimate of the target parameter.   A point estimate of the target parameter is .............. centimeters.
