1 answer

The mean age is calculated by adding all the ages together and then dividing by the total number of employees.

Mean age = (34 + 41 + 28 + 35 + 27 + 44 + 48 + 29 + 33 + 39) / 10
Mean age = 348 / 10
Mean age = 34.8

Therefore, the mean age of the randomly selected employees is 34.8 years. So the closest option is 35.8.
