Answer:

The average is 125

Step-by-step explanation:

On Monday through Friday they carried 121 papers

5*121 = 605 papers

Saturday and Sunday they had 135

2*135 = 270

The total papers carried during the week was

605+270 = 875

there are 7 days in a week. To find the average, take the papers carried and divide by the number of days

875/7 = 125
