Answer 1

To find the mean price of the items Stevie bought, you need to add up all the prices and then divide by the total number of items.
3 + 5 + 2 + 15 + 5 + 5 + 7 = 42

Since there are 7 items, you divide 42 by 7:

42 / 7 = 6

Therefore, the mean price of the items Stevie bought is 6.

The correct answer is D) 6.

Answer 2

To find the mean price of the items Stevie bought, we need to add up all the prices and then divide by the number of items.

Adding up the prices:
9 + 12 + 2 + 1 + 10 + 8 + 6 + 24 = 72

Since there are 8 items, we divide the total price by 8:

72 / 8 = 9

The mean price of the items Stevie bought is 9.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. 36.
