Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the mean batting average, add all the batting averages together and then divide by the number of players. The sum of the batting averages is $0.236 + 0.300 + 0.226 + 0.310 + 0.228 + 0.338 + 0.258 = 1.896$. There are 7 players, so the mean batting average is $1.896 \div 7 = 0.270857$, which rounds to 0.271.
