Finding the Mean (Averages)

This free printable worksheet gives 6th graders focused practice computing the mean. Every data set is built so the sum divides evenly, producing whole-number averages that keep attention on the method.

How to Solve Statistics

Add all the values in the set, then divide the total by how many values there are. For 12, 7, 9, 4: the sum is 32 and there are 4 values, so the mean is 32 ÷ 4 = 8. The mean always lies between the smallest and largest value — if yours doesn't, recheck the addition.
