What is the mean for the following set of data, to the nearest whole number? 5, 9, 15, 18, 22

14

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean of a data set, add together all the values, then divide by the number of values.

Add all the values

Values: 5, 9, 15, 18, 22

Add: 5+9+15+18+22=69

Divide by the number of values. In this case, there are 5 values.

69/5

13.8

To the nearest whole number:

13.8

The tenth place is an 8, which is greater than 5, so we will round up.

13.8-->14

The mean is 14
