Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is the average of all numbers, and spread is the range of the data set.

Mean:

2+3+4+4+7=20

20/5=4

The mean is 4.

Spread:

Minimum 2

Maximum 7

7-2=5

The spread is 5.

Either way, even if you didn't know what the center was, spread has 4 different options meaning you can just solve for spread if needed. Just a heads up!
