Question

A store manager timed janette to see how long it would take her to fold and put away sweater, a shirt, a pair of pants, and a scarf. It took her 26.1 seconds for the shirt, 24.3 seconds for the sweater, 32.8 seconds for the pants, ans 18.2 seconds for the scarf. What was the average time it took janette to fold and put away all four items

Answer 1

Hello! I would love to help!

Okay! To find the average, you have to add up all the numbers, then divide them by however many numbers there are. They give us 4 numbers.

Let's start by adding them all!

26.1+24.3+32.8+18.2=101.4

Okay. Now, we have to divide that answer by 4 since there are 4 numbers we added.

101.4/4=25.35

So, the average time was 25.35 seconds!

Hope this helped! Comment if you have questions!
