CompTIA Data+ (DA0-001) — Question 25

Five dogs have the following heights in millimeters:
300, 430, 170, 470, 600
Which of the following is the mean height for the five dogs?

Answer options

• A. 394mm
• B. 405mm
• C. 493mm
• D. 504mm

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The mean height is calculated by adding all the heights together (300 + 430 + 170 + 470 + 600 = 1970) and then dividing by the number of dogs (1970 / 5 = 394). The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the average calculated from the given heights.
