Find the average of the following numbers:
24, 32, 59, 21, 19
The average of the above numbers is
There are a total of 5 entries given i.e. 24, 32, 59, 21 and 19.
To find the total of these entries we add up the numbers:
Total of entries = 24 + 32 + 59 + 21 + 19 = 155
Now, the formula of average is:
Average = Total of all entriesNumber of entries
Substituting
Average = Total of all entriesNumber of entries=1555=31
Thus the average of the above set of numbers is 31.
