a)

\n

To find the mean you first need to sum the numbers, i.e.:

\n

\\[ \\simplify[]{{a}+{b}+{c}} = \\var{a+b+c} \\]

\n

Then divide through by the number of values being summed:

\n

\\[ \\text{Mean} = \\simplify{{a+b+c}/3} \\]

\n

b)

\n

The mean is

\n

\\[ \\simplify[]{({a}+{b}+{f}+{c}+{d})/5} = \\simplify[fractionnumbers]{{(a+b+f+c+d)/5}} \\]
