It took her 26.1 seconds for the shirt, 24.3 seconds for the sweater, 32.8 seconds for the pants, and 18.2 seconds for the scarf. What was the average time it took Janette to fold and put away all four items? 25 seconds 25.4 seconds 25.35 seconds 26.1 seconds

Answer 1

Answer:

= 24.3+26.1+32.8+18.2/4

=25.35

Answer 2

Answer:

The final answer is 25.35

Solution:

According to the question,

Given Data:

A store manager timed Janette to fold:

Shirt = 26.1 seconds

Sweater = 24.3 seconds

Pants = 32.8 seconds

Scarf = 18.2 seconds

To Find:

Calculate the average time:

Step 1:

Average time= total time taken / number of all items

Step 2:

Total time = 26.1 + 24.3 + 32.8 + 18.2 = 101.4 seconds

Step 4:

Total number of items=4

Step 5:

Result:

Substitute the values in formulae,

Average time $=\frac{6000}{410}$

  =25.35
