A man drives x miles the first day, y miles the second day, and z miles the third day. The average mileage covered per day is
this is tha question
a television series consits of 8 programes, each 3 over 4of an hour. how many 3hour tapes would be required to tape the series please tell me how you work it out
8 tapes x (3/4 hour) = 6 hours total to be taped.
That would require two three- hout tapes.
To find the average mileage covered per day, you need to calculate the total distance covered and then divide it by the total number of days.
To find the total distance covered, add up the distances from each day:
Total distance = x + y + z
To find the total number of days, simply count how many days are being considered in the given situation. In this case, it is three days.
Total number of days = 3
Now divide the total distance by the total number of days to find the average mileage covered per day:
Average mileage per day = Total distance / Total number of days
So the formula to calculate the average mileage is:
Average mileage per day = (x + y + z) / 3
