Answer:


V_(average)=15.34L

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the volumes of pollutants:

Macon 0.519 L

Ogiala 44.67 L

Pitt 0.826 L

The average he ought report is computed by adding them and subsequently dividing by three since there are three pollutants as shown below:


V_(average)=(0.519L+44.67L+0.826L)/(3) \\\\V_(average)=15.34L

Regards.
