1, 4, 9, 4, 10, 8, 42

Put this into order.

1, 4, 4, 8, 10, 42

It would most definitely not be the mode, because there is an outlier, and it wouldn't be the median, because once again, there is an outlier.

So, that leaves you with the mean.

The mean would measure this the best because it'll represent it the best. It is also the only one that'll fully make sense.

So, your answer is : The mean.

~Hope I helped!~

Start by decomposing the number inside the root into primes

Then group the terms into cubes if possible

$\begin{gathered} 80=2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot5 \\ 80=2^3\cdot2\cdot5 \\ 80=10\cdot2^3 \end{gathered}$

rewrite the root

$\sqrt[3]{80}=\sqrt[3]{10\cdot2^3}$

then cancel the terms that are cubes and bring them out of the root

$\sqrt[3]{80}=2\sqrt[3]{10}$

Elmer has a collection of 300 fossils. Of those, 21% are fossilized snail shells. How many fossilized snail shells does Elmer ha

kakasveta [241]

Use the percent proportion

21 x
—— = ——
100 300

to solve :
21 x 300 = 6300
6300 ÷ 100 = 63

Answer = 63 of Elmer’s shells are fossilized snail shells :)
