Explanation & Answer

mean = sum of six numbers  / total number

so,

        18 = sum of six numbers / 6

one number is 23 in that six numbers so,

         18 = (23 + sum of  other five numbers )/6 

    108 =  23 + sum of  other five numbers 

        sum of other five numbers =  85...............................


now the mean of  other five numbers  =  sum of other five numbers / 5

                                                             =85/5

                                                              =17........................


SO ANSWER IS   mean  = 17....................
