you take the group of numbers, add them ALL up, then you divide it by the number of numbers. example:
1) Find the average:
3, 7, 5, 9, 8.2
2) 3+7+5+9+8.2= 32.2
3) 32.2 divided by 5 (because there are five numbers)
4) the answer is 6.44

For instance, find the mean of 1, 2, 3 Add the numbers together. 1+2+3=6 3 numbers were in the original set of numbers so divide by 3 6/3=2 The mean is 2.

The mean is the average. You simply add all the numbers and divide by how many numbers there are. So the mean of 16 numbers would be the sum of all 16 numbers, divided by 16.
Average is the sum of numbers divided by n. It is also called the mean average.Here is an example to find the average of numbers:Let's say you want to find the average of four numbers, 26, 14, 11, and 9.First you need to add up those 4 numbers. 26 + 14 + 11 + 9 = 60.Then you need to divide the result (60), by the numbers of numbers there are, in this case 4, because there are four numbers you want to find the average.60 divided by 4 = 15, so the average of the numbers 26, 14, 11, and 9 is 15.
