You add all the numbers together, then divide the total by the amount of numbers.
For example:
Find the mean of 4, 5, 6, 9
1. Add all the numbers together:
4+5+6+9=24
2. Count the numbers
There are 4 numbers.
3. Divide the total by the amount of numbers ( divide the answer of Step 1 by Step 2 )
24/4=6
Therefore the mean of 4, 5, 6, 9 is 6.
