Answer 1

Answer: $20$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Put the numbers in order: $11,12,17,19,23,27,31$

2) Find the sum: $140$

3) Divde 140 by the total numbers: $18.769875523239$

Range: $20$

Largest Number: $31$

Smallest Number: $11$

Divide: $140/7$  and get $20$

Answer 2

So to find average, we add up the values, and divide it by how many values there are in total.

27 + 12 + 31 + 19 + 23 + 11 + 17 = 140.

There are 7 numbers. Which means we divide 140 by 7.

140 / 7 = 20 is the average.

Also, if you notice, most of the numbers "kind of" circulate around 20.
