Two participants solved a puzzle cube during timed competitions. The lists give the times, to the nearest second, that participant A and participant B took to solve the cube at various competitions. Participant A: $23,23,25,27$ Participant B: $23,23,25,27,38$ Which statement correctly compares the mean solve times, to the nearest second, of participant A and participant B at these competitions?

A

The mean solve time of participant A is greater than the mean solve time of participant B.

B

The mean solve time of participant A is less than the mean solve time of participant B.

C

The mean solve time of participant A is equal to the mean solve time of participant B.

D

There is not enough information to compare the mean solve times of participant A and participant B.
