Question

Jordan and Ben exercise at the same gym. The table below shows the number of calories they burned in each of their last 5 workouts.

How many calories would ben need to burn in his next workout to have the same average as Jordan? ​

Answer 1

Answer: The answer is 55 more calories than jordan in the next session

Step-by-step explanation: So sorry, I am bad at explaining :(

Answer 2

760 calories

Explanation:

Jordan's average is ...

(850 +674 +729 +658 +614)/5 = 705

Then the total number of calories Ben needs to burn in 6 sessions is ...

705×6 = 4230

So far, Ben has burned ...

716 +635 +802 +687 +630 = 3470 . . . calories

So, in his next session, Ben must burn ...

4230 -3470 = 760 . . . calories

To have the same average after 6 sessions that Jordan now has after 5 sessions, Ben must burn 760 calories in his 6th session.
