A. Add up all of her scores together:

20 + 40 + 40 + 40 + 60 + 60 + 60 + 60 + 80 + 80 + 80 + 80 + 100 = 800

Or you could do multiplication, 4 example, she had 3 scores of 40, so you could do 3(40)

20 + 3(40) + 4(60) + 4(80) + 100 = 800

B. She has:

20 - 1 score

40 - 3 scores

60 - 4 scores

80 - 4 scores

100 - 1 score She took a total of 13 quizzes since she has a 13 scores

C. (this is basically the mean score)

To find the mean score/average,

you add up all of the scores, then divide the total of her scores by the number of quizzes/scores she had

800 ÷ 13 = 61.5384615385

(idk if you leave it as a fraction, or if you have to round)

Answer:

A. 800

B. 13

C. 61.54

Explanation:

I added all of them together (A)

I counted the test scores (B)

I took 800 and divided it by 13 to get 61.5384615385 but then rounded it too 61.54.
