Correct Answer: 12
Solution : The average of a set of numbers is calculated by adding all the numbers and then dividing by the count of the numbers. Average = $\frac{\text{Sum of all the observations}}{{\text{Total number of observations}}}$ Average = $\frac{12 + 14 + 8 + 10 + 16}{5}$ = 12 Hence, the correct answer is 12.
