Mean = ∑x/n
Calculate means. Whichever bags has the fewer potatoes, would have (on average) the larger potatoes.
The following data shows the number of potatoes in twenty 2 kg bags. One graph represents Farm A, the other represents Farm B
Farm A: 8,9,11,13,13,16,19,19,19,20,21,21,23,25,26,27,30,31,33,33
Farm B: 9,9,11,11,12,13,13,14,15,16,17,17,18,19,20,21,21,22,24,30
