Answer:

3.28

Step-by-step explanation:

find the mean of all the numbers

3 + 8 + 10 + 12 + 15 = 48

48/5=9.6

so the mean of all the numbers is 9.6

now subtract 9.6 from all the numbers

|3 - 9.6| = 6.6

|8 - 9.6| = 1.6

|10 - 9.6| = .4

|12 - 9.6| = 2.4

|15 - 9.6| = 5.4

Find the mean/average of the new values

6.6 + 1.6 + .4 + 2.4 + 5.4 = 16.4

16.4/5 = 3.28

ehidna [41]

Answer:

720 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the number of apples in the small pack.

QTY for Small Cartons is 15A,

QTY for Big Cartons is 20(A+15) = 20A+300

From small cartons makes 25% or 1/4 of total, means the big carton makes 75% of total, or 3/4 of total. This also means the qty in big carton is 3 times of small carton

20A+300 = 3X (15A)= 45A

300 = 25A

A=12

Altogether = 15A+(20A+300) = 720 Apples
