How do you average two negative numbers?
The same as two positive numbers. -4 . & -10 Mean = (-4 + -10)/2 Mean = -14/2 Mean = -7 NB In mathemtical terms, the word, 'average' is NOT used. It is the MEAN.,
What does the word mean mean in mathmatical terms?
it means the average. add up all of the numbers and divide by the number of numbers you added. for example, 10+ 10+10=30 the mean is 30 divided by 3 = 10 the average! A nasty average?
How many operations ( plus and and divide) to find the average of 10 numbers?
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.
What is a mean of 5 10 15?
It means you are counting in increments of 5. 5+5=10, 10+5=15. If by the word "mean", you are talking about the average, then the mean is 10. To determine the average of any group of numbers, add the numbers and divide the total by the number of numbers added - (does this makes sense?) Example: 5 + 10 + 15 = 30. Divide 30 by 3 (you added 3 numbers together to get the total) and the average is 10. Hope this helps.
What happens when you have two middle value numbers for a median?
A paradox occurs in the space-time continuum and the universe ceases to exist ;) But seriously, what you probably REALLY mean is how do you find the median of a list of numbers with an even number of numbers. When you have an even number of numbers, you take the average of the two middle numbers. So for example: 1, 6, 8, 10, 15, 20 The two middle numbers are 8 and 10. The average of 8 and 10 is 9, so the median of the above example is 9.
