The formula for mean is (sumx)/n.

Explanation:

We can find the mean of these numbers by using the mean formula.

(sumx)/n

sum is a symbol meaning 'sum.' In this case, it tells us to take the sum of x, which refers to the values we're finding the mean of.

n stands for the number of terms in the set. In this problem, there are 6 numbers.

(7420+3210+6720+5780+1850+4350)/6~~4888.3

Therefore, the mean is approximately 4888.3.
