Answer 3

To find the mean, take the sum of your data set (add them all up), and then divide by the number of terms in your data set (how many items there are in the data set).

So, the mean will be the sum divided by the number of terms, also expressed as
\[mean=\frac{98+87+92+79+65+91+80+92+85+86}{10}\]
