To calculate the mean of the dataset {1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6}, add all the numbers together and divide by the total number of values.
Mean = (1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 + 1/5 + 1/6) / 5
Mean = (15/30 + 10/30 + 7.5/30 + 6/30 + 5/30) / 5
Mean = 43.5/30 / 5
Mean = 8.7 / 5
Mean = 1.74
Therefore, the mean of the dataset is 1.74. This is not one of the answer options provided, so the closest option is B. 29/100, which is equivalent to 0.29.
