To calculate the **mean number of flyers** Ashleigh received per day, we follow these steps:

1. Multiply each "Flyers received" value by its corresponding frequency to get the total flyers for each group.
2. Add up all the total flyers.
3. Divide the total flyers by the sum of the frequencies (which gives the total number of days).

### Table Summary:

| Flyers received | Frequency |
|-----------------|-----------|
| 0               | 1         |
| 1               | 3         |
| 2               | 4         |
| 3               | 1         |
| 4               | 3         |
| 5               | 2         |

### Step 1: Multiply each flyers received by its frequency:
- \( 0 \times 1 = 0 \)
- \( 1 \times 3 = 3 \)
- \( 2 \times 4 = 8 \)
- \( 3 \times 1 = 3 \)
- \( 4 \times 3 = 12 \)
- \( 5 \times 2 = 10 \)

### Step 2: Add the total flyers together:
\[
0 + 3 + 8 + 3 + 12 + 10 = 36
\]

### Step 3: Add the frequencies to get the total number of days:
\[
1 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 3 + 2 = 14
\]

### Step 4: Calculate the mean:
\[
\text{Mean} = \frac{36}{14} \approx 2.57
\]

Therefore, the **mean number of flyers** Ashleigh received per day is **2.6** (rounded to 1 decimal place).

Here are 5 related questions to expand your understanding:
1. How would the mean change if the frequency of receiving 0 flyers increased to 2?
2. Can you calculate the median number of flyers received per day?
3. How does the variance and standard deviation of this data set look?
4. What is the mode of the flyers received?
5. How could we use this data to predict future flyer distributions?

**Tip:** When calculating the mean, always ensure the sum of the frequencies matches the total number of observations (in this case, days).
