Solution

To find the mean number of cups of coffee drank per week by an employee, you need to add up all the numbers and then divide by the total number of people.

Here are the steps:

  1. Add up all the numbers: 5 + 13 + 3 + 13 + 5 + 9 + 5 + 13 + 13 + 9 = 88
  2. Divide the total by the number of people: 88 ÷ 10 = 8.8

So, the mean number of cups of coffee drank per week by an employee in the company is 8.8. Therefore, the correct answer is D. 8.8.
