Step 1
The mean of a set of numbers is the sum divided by the number of terms.
0.9+1+1.2+1.3+1.3+1.6+0.9+1.4+1.89
Step 2
Simplify the numerator.
Add 0.9 and 1.
1.9+1.2+1.3+1.3+1.6+0.9+1.4+1.89

Step 3
Divide11.4 by 9.
1.2‾6
Step 4
Divide.
1.2‾6
Step 5
The mean should be rounded to one more decimal place than the original data. If the original data were mixed, round to one decimal place more than the least precise.
