Here's the Solution to this Question

 Given that P(1)= 10/33 P (2) =11/33 and P(3)= 12/33, the mean is given as,

E(x)=\sum xp(x)=(1\times {10\over33})+(2\times{11\over33})+(3\times {12\over33})={10\over33}+{22\over33}+{36\over33}={68\over33}=2.060606

The mean of the probability distribution is 2.060606
