Averages Week 6

This week in maths, Miss Power set us a task of finding an average of a time or number by doing things like shooting goals and running around the field/fitness trail. Caitlyn, Megan and I chose to run the fitness trail once a day. My times went like this:

Monday-41 seconds
Tuesday-35 seconds
Wednesday-37 seconds
Thursday-32 seconds
Friday-31 seconds

To find the average I had to add all the numbers together and divide them by 5 like this:

We divide them by 5 because we did the times over 5 days.

41+35+37+32+31=176
176➗5=35 r1

⅕ is equal to 0.2 so my average is 35.2 seconds to run around the fitness trail.
