To calculate the mean number of hours spent outside by the kids surveyed, we need to add up all the hours spent outside and then divide by the total number of kids surveyed.

Adding up all the hours spent outside:
0 + 10 + 15 + 4 + 70 + 15 + 18 + 20 + 6 + 8 + 10 + 12 + 15 + 18 + 20 + 2 + 50 + 40 + 10 = 318

Now, we divide the total number of hours spent outside by the number of kids surveyed:
Mean = 318 / 19 ≈ 16.74

Therefore, the mean number of hours spent outside by the kids surveyed is approximately 16.74 hours.
