A pet store has 7 cats. Here are their weights (in pounds). 10, 6, 15, 12, 16, 8, 5 Find the mean weight of these cats. If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth.

The mean (average) can be found by adding up all ur numbers and dividing by how many numbers there are.

(10 + 6 + 15 + 12 + 16 + 8 + 5) / 7 = the mean

72/7 = the mean

10.28 rounds to 10.3 lbs = ur mean

To find the mean you need to add all the numbers up and then divide by the amount of numbers. It should look like this:

10 + 6 + 15 + 12 + 16 + 8 + 5 = 72

72 divided by 7 = 10.28571428571429

Round 10.28571428571429 to the nearest tenth: 10.3

The answer is 10.3
