Question

2.10 Find the average:
1. 10, 14, 22, 6, 18​

Answer 1

Answer :-

• The average of 10, 14, 22, 6 and 18 is 14.

To find :-

• The average of the given numbers.

Step-by-step explanation :-

• Here, some numbers have been given to us. We have to find their average.

------------------------------

We know that :-

$\underline{\boxed{\sf Average = \dfrac{Sum \: of \: all \: numbers}{Total \: numbers}}}$

Here,

• Sum of all numbers = 10 + 14 + 22 + 6 + 18.
• Total numbers = 5.

Hence,

$\rm Average = \dfrac{10 + 14 + 22 + 6 + 18}{5}$

Adding all the numbers,

$\rm Average = \dfrac{70}{5}$

Dividing 70 by 5,

$\overline{\boxed{\rm Average = 14}}$

• Hence, the average of the given numbers is 14.
