Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation

The mean = sum of 1\(\frac{1}{2}\), 2\(\frac{2}{3}\), 3\(\frac{3}{4}\), 4\(\frac{4}{5}\), and 5\(\frac{5}{6}\) divided by their quantity.

Mean = ( 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) + 2\(\frac{2}{3}\) + 3\(\frac{3}{4}\) + 4\(\frac{4}{5}\) + and 5\(\frac{5}{6}\) ) / 5

= 3.708 or 3.71( 2 d.p )
