Answer 1

1.6 i think
add all the goals and divide by the amount of games?

Answer 2

The average number of goals per game Peter scores, rounded to one decimal place is 1.6

Step-by-step explanation

In first two games Peter scored 2 goals each. So, total score in two games = (2×2)= 4

In one game he scored 0 goal and in next two games he scored 3 goals each, so the total is (3×2)= 6

In the last four games he scored 1 goal in each, so the total is (1×4)= 4

So, the total score in all
`9` games
`= 4+0+6+4= 14`

Thus, the average number of goals
`= (14)/(9)= 1.5555....`

So, the average number of goals per game Peter scores, rounded to one decimal place is 1.6
