Question

Jack has twelve dollars in his pocket on Monday, three dollars on Tuesday, ten dollars on Wednesday, eight dollars on Thursday, and two dollars on Friday. What is the average amount of money Jack has in his pocket per day?

Answer 1

$7 per day

Twelve + Three + Ten + Eight + Two = Thirty five

The average is the total money divided by the numbers of day = 35/5 = 7 dollars

Answer 2

7 dollars per day

Explanation:

12 + 3 + 10 + 8 +2 = 35

Average = Total money/number of days

= 35/5

= 7 dollars per day
