    Mean is add the numbers and divide the result by how many numbers there are

    mean=23

    1 missing number which is x

    5 numbers including missing one

    (15+17+28+30+x) / 5=23

    solve for x

    multiply both sides by 5

    15+17+28+30+x=115

    add like terms

    90+x=115

    subtract 90

    x=25

    the missing number is 25

    15+17+28+30=90, if theres another number than there r 5 total numbers, 23*5=115, 115-90=25, so 25
