Question

Joe measures the weight of five servings of animal crackers and found that they weigh 55.4 g, 54.9 g, 55.1 g, 55.3 g, and 54.8 g. Determine the average weight of a serving to the nearest gram.

Answer 1

Easy . Let me walk you through how to figure it out and then ill give you the answer. First, add up 55.4 + 54.9 + 55.1 + 55.3 + 54.8 and get 275.5. Now since you added five numbers, you take your total and divide by five. You will get 55.1. Now you round down to the nearest gram and get for a final total 55 grams. Hope this helped. : )
