Answer 1

154 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the average number of boxes of cookies sold by each individual​, we use the formula:

`\text{Average=}\frac{\text{Sum of all boxes sold}}{\text{Number of individuals}}`

This gives:

`\begin{gathered} \text{Average}=(112+126+202+176)/(4) \\ =(616)/(4) \\ =154\text{ boxes} \end{gathered}`

The average number of boxes of cookies sold by each individual​ was 154 boxes.
