The formula to discover the sample mean is: = (Σ xi) / n. All that formula is saying is add together all of the statistics in your data set (Σ means "add up" and xi means "all the numbers in the data set).

But the only given is the 80% and 15. Therefore, Mean = total number x probability

= 15 x 0.8 = 12 The answer is 12
