Calculating the mean is a cornerstone of data analysis, letting you gauge the central tendency of a set of numbers. The formula is straightforward: Mean = (Sum of All Values) ÷ (Number of Values). For instance, if you have monthly sales figures like [120, 150, 130, 100], the sum is 500 and there are 4 values, so the mean is 500 ÷ 4 = 125. Means are used in classroom grading, budgeting, and countless scientific analyses. Developing a strong intuitive feel for what the mean signifies helps interpret test scores, plan resource allocations, and evaluate trends in everyday life.
