Answer 1

Step by step explanation:

To find the average temperature, you take the three different temperatures you had throughout the day and divide them by how many different kinds there are. (3).

This means that the average is 1°F. This is because you have to add -3 + 12 + (-6) = 3.

Then you have to divide 3 by the amount of numbers you need to average between. In this case, you have to divide 3 by 3.

So, your final answer is:

The average temperature for the day was 1°F
