Answer to Problem 1LSR
Solution:
The mean of a set of number is found by adding all of the numbers, then dividing by how many numbers there are in the list.
Explanation of Solution
For an example consider a set of number as:
25,75,50
Here, are three numbers in the data set, now to find the average or the mean of this set,
