if the weight of five puppies in kilograms are 3.5, 3.0, 4.2, 5.0 and 4.3, then mean weight of the puppies is?
Answer Details
To find the mean weight of the five puppies, you need to add up their weights and divide the total by the number of puppies.
So, adding up the weights of the five puppies:
3.5 kg + 3.0 kg + 4.2 kg + 5.0 kg + 4.3 kg = 20 kg
Then, dividing by the number of puppies (which is 5):
20 kg ÷ 5 = 4.0 kg
Therefore, the mean weight of the five puppies is 4.0 kg.
