Katherine has recorded the temperature outside each day for one week. The daily temperatures are recorded in the table.
Calculate the average temperature for the week. Round to the nearest whole number.
°F
To calculate the average temperature for the week, we need to add up all the recorded temperatures and divide by the number of days.
Here are the recorded temperatures:
Day 1: 75°F
Day 2: 82°F
Day 3: 79°F
Day 4: 85°F
Day 5: 77°F
Day 6: 73°F
Day 7: 80°F
To calculate the average, we add up all the temperatures:
75°F + 82°F + 79°F + 85°F + 77°F + 73°F + 80°F = 551°F
And then divide by the number of days (7):
551°F / 7 = 78.71428571428571°F
Rounding to the nearest whole number, the average temperature for the week is 79°F.
To calculate the average temperature for the week, you need to sum up all the temperatures and divide by the number of days in the week (7).
Let's use the following table to calculate the average temperature:
Day 1: 72°F
Day 2: 75°F
Day 3: 78°F
Day 4: 73°F
Day 5: 70°F
Day 6: 76°F
Day 7: 74°F
To calculate the average temperature, add up all the temperatures:
72 + 75 + 78 + 73 + 70 + 76 + 74 = 518
Now, divide the total sum (518) by the number of days (7):
518 / 7 = 74
Rounding to the nearest whole number, the average temperature for the week is 74°F.
