Explanation:

Step1: Sum the integers

First, we add up all the numbers in the set: \(16 + 10 + 1 + 10 + 6 + 18 + 13 + 14\). Let's calculate that: \(16+10 = 26\), \(26 + 1 = 27\), \(27 + 10 = 37\), \(37 + 6 = 43\), \(43 + 18 = 61\), \(61 + 13 = 74\), \(74 + 14 = 88\).

Step2: Count the number of integers

Now, we count how many numbers are in the set. The numbers are 16, 10, 1, 10, 6, 18, 13, 14. So there are 8 numbers.

Step3: Calculate the mean

The mean is the sum divided by the number of elements. So we do \(\frac{88}{8}\).
