Answer

Mean (M) = Total social work hrsNo. of people\dfrac{\text{Total social work hrs}}{\text{No. of people}}

Sum of hours spent by people on social work = 10 + 7 + 13 + 20 + 15 = 65.

M=655=13.M = \dfrac{65}{5} = 13.

Hence, the mean time in a week devoted by people for social work is 13 hours.
