Question 951848: The mean of six numbers is 24. Five of the numbers are 18, 30, 27, 25 and 29. What is the missing number? Answer by macston(5194) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If the mean of 6 numbers is 24, the sum of the numbers is 6(24)=144
The sum of the first five is 18+30+27+25+29=129 so the sixth number is 144-129=15.
ANSWER: The missing number is 15.
