Question

find the average of the given numbers 2 6 10 14 18 42​

Answer 1

Question:

• Find the average of the given numbers 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 42.

Given numbers:

• 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 42

We know that:

• Average = Sum of values / Number of values

Finding the sum of values:

• Sum of values = 2 + 6 + 10 + 14 + 18 + 42
• Sum of values = 92

We have:

• Sum of values = 92
• Number of values = 6

Finding the average:

⟶ Average = 92/6

⟶ Average = 15.33 (approx.)

Hence,

• The average of 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 42 is 15.33.

Answer 2

Given :

⟶ Numbers = 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 42

To find :

⟶ Average of the given number = ?

Solution :

Formula to be used,

$\tt \longrightarrow \underline{\boxed{ \tt Average = \dfrac{ \sf Sum \: of \: all \: value} { \sf Number \: of \: values} }}$

$\quad$

Finding the sum of all values,

⟶ Numbers = 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 42

Sum = 2 + 6 + 10 + 14 + 18 + 42 = 92

Hence, the sum is 92

$\quad$

Now we have

⟹ Sum of all values = 92

⟹ Number of values = 6

$\quad$

Substitute the values,

$\tt \longrightarrow \tt Average = \dfrac{ \sf 92} { \sf 6}$

$\tt \longrightarrow \tt Average = \dfrac{ \sf 46} { \sf 3}$

$\tt \longrightarrow \tt Average = 15 . \overline{3}$

$\quad$

Therefore,

$\tt \longrightarrow \underline{\boxed{ \tt Average \: of \: the \:given\:number=15 . \overline{3}} }$
