How do you calculate mean?
Remember, the mean is calculated by adding the scores together and then dividing by the number of scores you added. In this case, the mean would be 2 + 4 (add the two middle numbers), which equals 6. Then, you take 6 and divide it by 2 (the total number of scores you added together), which equals 3.
