Question

Your basketball team plays 5 games. Your team scores 10 points in the first game, 3 points in the second game, 2 points in the third game, 5 points in the fourth game, and 0 points in the fifth game. What was the mean number of points your team scored for all 5 games?

Answer 1

The mean number of points your basketball team scored for all 5 games is 4 points per game.

Explanation:

To find the mean or average number of points scored by the team for all 5 games, we need to add up the total number of points and then divide by the number of games played.

Total number of points scored in 5 games = 10 + 3 + 2 + 5 + 0 = 20

Mean number of points scored per game = Total number of points scored / Number of games played

= 20 points / 5 games

= 4 points

Therefore, the mean number of points your basketball team scored for all 5 games is 4 points per game.
