Given:

Item time
shirt 26.1 seconds
sweater 24.3 seconds
pants 32.8 seconds
scarf 18.2 seconds

Add up all the time in seconds:
26.1 + 24.3 + 32.8 + 18.2 = 101.4

divide the sum by the 4 items:
101.4 / 4 = 25.35 seconds

The average time Janette took to fold and put away all 4 items is 25.35 seconds.
