Correct Answer: 1.4


Solution : According to the data given in the table:
Total number of children = 0 × 7 + 1 × 7 + 2 × 13 + 3 × 3 = 42
Total number of houses = 7 + 7 + 13 + 3 = 30
So, the average number of children per house = $\frac{\text{Total number of children}}{\text{Total number of houses}}$
= $\frac{42}{30}$
= 1.4
Hence, the correct answer is 1.4.
