Question

I have this question from my homework and it was me stumped

her it is

Ricardo ran the 400 meter race 3 times his fastest time was 54.3 seconds his slowest time was 56.1 seconds if his average time was 55.0 seconds what was his time for the third race
please help me

Answer 1

His average was 55.0 seconds, multiply that by the number of times he ran. This will give you the total time:

55.0 * 3 = 165 total seconds.

Subtract his times for the fastest and slowest to find the time for the third one:

165 - 54.3 - 56.1 = 54.6

The third race was 54.6 seconds.
