Explanation:

The arithmetic mean is an average.

This means that you find the "central value in a set of numbers".

Say I scored 89,90,96,and83 on some tests in school, and I wanted to calculate my average score.

I would add all of them together and divide by the number of scores that I was combining (which is 4, because I took four tests):

89+90+96+834=average

3584=average

89.5=average

So 89.5 is my arithmetic mean score.
