Question

Find the mean of :

All the factors of $96$

Answer 1

Step 1: Listing all the factors of $96$

$96$ can also be written as

$$\begin{gathered} 96=96\times 1 \\ 96=48\times 2 \\ 96=32\times 3 \\ 96=24\times 4 \\ 96=6\times 16 \\ 96=8\times 12 \end{gathered}$$

Factors of $96$ are $1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,32,48,96$

Step 2: Finding the mean of all the factors of $96$

$\begin{array}{rcl}Mean& =& \frac{sumofallvalues}{Numberofvalues}\\ & =& \frac{1+2+3+4+6+8+12+16+24+32+48+96}{12}\\ & =& \frac{252}{12}\\ & =& 21\end{array}$

Hence, the mean of all the factors of $96$ are $21$
