Question

If i scored 88 on one test and a 93 on the other what was the average score

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

"average" or "mean value" are calculated by adding all data points up and dividing that sum by the number of data points.

e.g. if you eat 1 popsicle today, ate 2 popsicles yesterday and 3 the day before, you have 3 data points : 3, 2, 1.

in my example you had

(3 + 2 + 1)/3 = 6/3 = 2 popsicles every day on average.

the same principle here.

you have 2 days points. and your average score is

(88 + 93)/2 = 181/2 = 90.5

Answer 2

The average would be 90.5


Step-by-step explanation:

The average is calculated by adding the numbers and dividing them by the amount of numbers we have. So 88+93 and we get 181

And then we divide it by 2 (181/2)

The average score is 90.5
