C. 45.8 points
D. 30.5 points

Answer 1

The average score for the Florida Gators is calculated by summing their scores (44, 28, 27, 56, 28) to get 183, and then dividing by the number of games, which is 5. The average score is 36.6 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average score of the Florida Gators, you add up all of their final scores and then divide by the number of scores you have. In this case, you have five final scores: 44, 28, 27, 56, and 28. To calculate the average:

1. Add up the scores: 44 + 28 + 27 + 56 + 28 = 183.
2. Divide the sum by the number of scores: 183 ÷ 5 = 36.6.

Therefore, the correct answer is B. 36.6 points.
