Question

a student measured the temperature in degrees celsius for several winter days and recorded the data in a list find the average of the temperatures listed 6,-7,-5,5,-8,3

Answer 1

Answer:

Average = -1°C

Step-by-step explanation:

The data recorded is;

6, -7, -5, 5, -8, 3 (in °C)

Average = $\frac{6 - 7 - 5 + 5 - 8 + 3}{6}$ = -1°C

Answer 2

Answer:

Average temperature listed will be (-1).

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know average of any given set of numbers is = $\frac{\text{Sum of all the numbers}}{\text{Total numbers }}$

Now the given set of temperatures is 6, -7, -5, 5, -8, 3

Now Sum of all numbers = 6 + (-7) + (-5) + 5 + (-8) + 3

= (-6)

Total numbers = 6

Now average temperature will be = $\frac{-6}{6}=(-1)$

Therefore, average temperature listed will be (-1).
