Question

The low temperatures for 5 days was 5, -2, -11 ,0 and-3.What was the average low temperature for those days

Answer 1

Data:
Average (A): ?
Arithmetic mean (A.M) = 5, -2, -11, 0, -3sum of n numbers = 5

Solving:

`A = (AM)/(n) = (5+(-2)+(-11)+0+(-3))/(5) = (5-2-11-3)/(5) = (\diagup\!\!\!\!3-11-\diagup\!\!\!\!3)/(5) = (-11)/(5) = - 2.2`

Answer:

The average low temperature of these days is -2.2
