mean /medium
We have been asked to what the mean is of a certain number of donations however for example it says donations between £0 and £1.50=15 people , Between £1.50 and £3 again a number of people but not what they donated. My question is:- how can you get the mean if it is so vague?

Hi flojoe123;
Please copy the problem exactly as it is and post it here.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.
