Bryson · Answer 1

A.) £27,214.29

B.) £19,250

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following:

Andy £13500

Bevan £27500

Cheryl £13250

Deva £75000

Elliott £18750

Frankie £27500

Grace £15000

Mean income = (total sum of salaries / number of workers)

Mean income = £ (13500 + 27500 + 13250 + 75000 + 18750 + 27500 + 15000) / 7

Mean income = (£190,500 / 7) = £27,214.286

B.) mean income excluding Deva's salary:

Mean income = Mean income = £ (13500 + 27500 + 13250 + 18750 + 27500 + 15000) / 7

Mean income = £115,500 / 6

Mean income = £19,250
