Answer 1

Answer:

x = -100747777778

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data is

Clarksville                     244244244

Bremington                   353353353

Shells                            235235235

Gristle                            311311311

Thornbury                     x

We know from the formula of mean

mean = sum / number of entries

273273273 = (244244244 + 353353353 + 235235235  + 311311311 + x)/5

273273273 * 5 = 11441144143 + x

x = -100747777778

Since, the answer can not be negative, there is something wrong with the data but the procedure will be same
