The total of the 6 numbers is 48 (6x8) Adding another number will take the total to 7. So with an average of 10, the total of the 7 numbers will be 70 (7x10) 70 - 48 = 22 which is our seventh number.

It is not possible to find out the average of a number without knowing how many numbers were added together to get said number. If there were say, 7 numbers added together to get the total of 27.352, then you would divide 27.352 by 7 to get the average.
The mean of numbers is the average. To find this, first add all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers you added.
In total, we are changing the sum of the 9 numbers by 1 + 2 + ... + 9 = 9 x 10 / 2 = 45, so each of the numbers is increased by, on average, 45/9=5. If the old average was 40, the new one is 40 + <the average amount each number was increased by> = 40 + 5 = 45.
The mean of a set of data is also known as the average. To get the average, add all the numbers in a data set up, then take away the number of numbers. eg. data set = 5,6,7,6,6,4,4,3,4,5,4,6. Added = 60 Number of numbers = 12 60/12 = 5 = Average
Average can be solved by adding all of the numbers and dividing by the total number of items being added. So:14 + 15 + 16 = 45 / 3 numbers = 15
