To find the mean of the set of numbers (11, 13, 24, 9, 24, 14, 10), you need to follow these steps:

  1. Sum all the numbers: \( 11 + 13 + 24 + 9 + 24 + 14 + 10 = 11 + 13 + 24 + 9 + 24 + 14 + 10 = 11 + 13 = 24 \) \[ 24 + 24 = 48 \] \[ 48 + 9 = 57 \] \[ 57 + 14 = 71 \] \[ 71 + 10 = 81 \]

So the total sum is 81.

  1. Count how many numbers there are: There are 7 numbers in the set.

  2. Calculate the mean: \[ \text{Mean} = \frac{\text{Sum of numbers}}{\text{Count of numbers}} = \frac{81}{7} \approx 11.57 \]

Therefore, the mean is approximately 11.57.
