The mean number of guests visiting the hotel in three days is .

• A. 21
• B. 18
• C. 20
• D. 23

Answer 1

The correct option is A 21

Mean is an average of the given numbers.
i.e, $\text{Mean =}\frac{\text{Sum of all the observations}}{\text{Total number of observations}}$



Sum of all observations = 17 + 21 + 25
= 63
Total number of observations = 3
$\text{Mean =}\frac{63}{3}=21$

$\therefore$ The mean number of guests visiting the hotel in 3 days are 21.
