Question

Find the mean of first six whole number

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

it helps you ..

mean =sum of observation

---------------------------------

Number of observation

whole number= 0,1,2,3,4,5

Mean = 0+1+2+3+4+5

--------------------------

5

= 15

----------

6

= 2.5

Answer 2

Given:

First six whole numbers.

To find:

The mean of the first six whole numbers.

Solution:

First of all, we should know that the mean of 'n' numbers is equal to the sum of n numbers divided by total numbers i.e. n.

This means,

$mean \: = \frac{sum \: of \: n \: numbers}{n}$

Also,

whole numbers are the numbers that start from 0 and then include all the positive numbers. They do not include any fraction or decimal form.

Now,

The first six whole numbers are:

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

The sum of the first six whole numbers

$= 0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5$

$= 15$

and

n = 6

So,

the mean

$= \frac{15}{6}$

$= \frac{5}{2}$

$= 2.5$

Hence, the mean of the first six whole numbers is 2.5.
