Answer:

So the formula for mean is you add up all of the numbers and divide by the number of numbers, that will give you the mean/average. So that means that (12+25+33+N)/4 = 120. We can simplify by first adding all of the numbers and multiplying both sides by 4 which will cancel out the four on the right side.

70+N/4 = 120

480 = 70+N

So then we subtract 70 from both sides. Then we get 410 = N.

The answer is

410 is Answer
