The Mean (A) WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

This worksheet gives practice in finding the mean from lists of discrete data.

Section A scaffolds the process by presenting a table with columns titled “total sum”, “how many numbers are there?” and “mean average”.

Section B removes the scaffolding but provides lists including decimals, fractions and negative numbers.

An extension question asks for possible values for a given mean. Calculators are permitted.
