What does the word mean mean in algebra?

The word 'mean' means the sum of a set of numbers

divided by the number of numbers in a set.

for example:

7+13+10+12+14+8+9+7+11+6=97

There are 10 numbers in this set of numbers so you

divide the total by10

(97divided by 10)

ANSWER = 9.7

Ex: 2+6+3+1= 14 Divide by 4 since there are 4 numbers.

Ex: 4+4=8

Now how many numbers are there?

There are 2 so divide the sum (8) by 2 equaling 4.

Another explanation:

1: There is a group of numbers. Add all numbers for the sum or total.

2: Divide by how many numbers you added.

Tip: Another word for mean is average.
