What is the mean number of 7,7,17,18,13,33,6,12,11,6,3,11,15,26,12

To find the mean (average) of a set of numbers, you follow these steps:

1. Add all the numbers together.
2. Divide the sum by the total number of values in the set.

Given the numbers:  
7, 7, 17, 18, 13, 33, 6, 12, 11, 6, 3, 11, 15, 26, 12

### Step 1: Add all the numbers together.
\[
7 + 7 + 17 + 18 + 13 + 33 + 6 + 12 + 11 + 6 + 3 + 11 + 15 + 26 + 12 = 197
\]

### Step 2: Divide the sum by the total number of values (there are 15 numbers).
\[
\frac{197}{15} = 13.13\ (rounded\ to\ two\ decimal\ places)
\]

So, the mean is **13.13**.
