Average, in a way, is a sort of central value; if you take an "average" of several numbers, some of the numbers will be above, some below, that average.

The calculation is to add all the numbers, then divide by the number of numbers (i.e., if you have 10 numbers, add all of them, then divide by 10).

I've poured enough drinks to know that people don't always want advice—they just want to talk.
