Question

The mean of 1,1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5 is

Answer 1

Answer:

The mean is  $\dfrac{137}{300}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean we need to find the sum of those numbers and divide it by the number of items.

Given the numbers $1, \dfrac{1}{2},\dfrac{1}{3},\dfrac{1}{4}, \dfrac{1}{5}$ . The sum of these numbers is,

$1+ \dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{5}= \dfrac{60+30+20+15+12}{60} =\dfrac{137}{60}$

There are 5 numbers on the list. Thus, the mean is calculated as follows.

$Mean = \dfrac{\frac{137}{60} }{5} = \dfrac{137}{60\times 5} =\dfrac{137}{300}$
