The Question is what is the mean of the snakes lengths. The mean means you line all of your numbers up in order then you add all of the numbers up and when you get the total you divide the total plus the amount of numbers you have. So in this case the numbers would be: 8,17,22,39,44..next you would add all them up so it would be \(44+39+22+17+8=130\) the next step would be to count the numbers up and divide that by the total...so it will be 5/130=26 so the mean for this question will be 26....hope it helps :)
