Question

Calculate the average obtained from the following weighings of the same object. Do not forget to include formulas, units, and the right number of significant figures:

10.4375g , 10.4381g, 10.4373g, 10.4376g

Answer 1

10.4376 g

Step-by-step explanation:

First we calculate the sum of the weighings:

• 10.4375 g + 10.4381 g + 10.4373 g + 10.4376 g = 41.7505 g

Then we divide the sum by the number of weighings to calculate the average:

• Number of weighings = 4

• Average = Sum of weighings / Number of weighings

• 41.7505 g / 4 = 10.4376 g
