Arithmetic mean: History, Generalizations & Definition

In mathematics and statistics, the arithmetic mean ( /ˌærɪθˈmɛtɪk/ ⓘ arr-ith-MET-ik), arithmetic average, or just the mean or average is the sum of a collection of numbers divided by the count of numbers in the collection. The collection is often a set of results from an experiment, an observational study, or a survey. The term "arithmetic mean" is…
