Question

(I will mark brainliest for the correct answer.)
Eliza intends to buy a new vehicle. She wishes to estimate the mean fuel efficiency (in miles per gallon) of all family sized SUV's currently available on the market. Eliza selects a random sample of 15 family sized SUV's and looks up their fuel efficiency on a trusted website. The results of the random sample are shown below:

27, 28, 30, 28, 28, 31, 29, 33, 28, 28, 31, 33, 41, 41, 25

What is the mean fuel efficiency rounded to the nearest whole number?



Question 1 options:

28


29


30


31

Answer 1

Answer:

D. 31

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean of any group of numbers, you simply add up all the numbers and then divide by how many numbers there are.

Using a calculator or a pencil, add the following:

27 + 28 + 30 +28 + 28 + 31 + 29 + 33 + 28 + 28 + 31 + 33 + 41 + 41 + 25

= 461

The last step is to divide 461 by 15:

461/15 = 30.73

Round 30.73 to the nearest whole number and you get D. 31
