Question

QUESTION 9 of 10: The mall owner has four available spaces for you to rent as you look to open your new t-shirt shop. The square footage

for each is as follows: 3,000, 4,000, 5,000, and 2,000. What is the average square footage available?
a) 3,000
Ob) 3,250
Oc) 3,500
Od) 3,750

Answer 1

answer is 3500

to get the average you add everything together and then divide by the amount of numbers which would be 4. so you get 14000 after adding it all and then divide by 4 to get 3500

Answer 2

Answer: 3500 (choice C)

Step-by-step explanation:

The set of numbers is {3000, 4000, 5000, 2000} in which we can think of as {3,4,5,2} but each number represents thousands. This sorts to {2,3,4,5}

The average of that is (2+3+4+5)/4 = 14/4 = 3.5 which represents 3.5 thousand or 3.5*1000 = 3500

Therefore, the average of the original set is 3500
