To find the mean, we need to multiply each score by the number of students who received that score, then add all the products together, and divide by the total number of students.
Mean = (75*77 + 80*66 + 85*22 + 90*99 + 95*88 + 100*11) / (77 + 66 + 22 + 99 + 88 + 11)
Mean = (5775 + 5280 + 1870 + 8910 + 8360 + 1100) / 363
Mean = 31295 / 363
Mean ≈ 86.24
So, the mean score of the exam is approximately 86.2 to the nearest tenth.
