To find the mean average of 10 numbers requires the 10 number to be added together which will take 9 additions and then divide by the number of numbers which will take 1 division → 9 additions followed by 1 division, a total of 10 operations are nominally needed to find the mean average of 10 numbers.
Add the numbers then divide the sum by the number of numbers you added e.g. average of 1,2,3,4 four numbers add em up 1+2+3+4 =10 divide the sum by the number of numbers 10/4 average of 1,2,3,4 is 2.5
The sum of the first 10 natural numbers is 51, with an average of 5.1
It average of 2 numbers is 9 then take 9 away from 12, so average of 3 numbers is now 9, with 3 'left over.' The 3 which is 'left over' divides among the three numbers by adding 1 to each of them, raising the new average to 10.
The average is 10. You will find that the average when adding together the first n odd numbers is always equal to n.
