Yes. To find the average of something, you could use the mean and to find the mean of something, you could use the average.

For example:

List of ABC's Grades:

87%

76%

55%

87%

100%

34%

88%

Now you would add these up and then divide by the total number of numbers. (There are 7 numbers, so I would divide the sum of these by 7)

( / = divided)

The sum is 527 / 7 = 75.7878

So, ABC's average for the semester is 76 % (rounded)

That is mean and average.

So, Yes They Are The Same Thing.

How do you find the average of a unknown number?

If you have only one number, then its average is that number itself: mean average = sum_of_numbers ÷ number_of_numbers → mean average = the_unknown_number ÷ 1 = the_unknown_number median average = middle number when listed in order; with only one number, it is the middle number → median average = the_unknown_number mode average = most frequent number; if there is more than one number with the same frequency, they are all the mode average; unless every different number occurs the same number of times in which case there is no mode average. With only 1 number, it is the sole most frequent number → mode average = the_unknown_number

How do you average things with one number?

If you mean duplicates of the same number, then that number is the average. If it is one number, it is the number's value itself. For example the average of four fours (4, 4, 4, 4) isfour itself. Alone, the average of 4 is just 4. Is that what your question is?
