Question

You must accumulate 790 points to achieve your goal this month. If you work 22 business days this month, how many points must you earn each day, on average, to meet your goal?

Answer 1

Answer:

36 points each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that we must accumulate 790 points to achieve our goal this month.            

To find the number of points earned each day, on average, we will divide total number of points achieved in a month by number of business days we worked.

$\text{ Points earned each day on average}=\frac{790}{22}$

$\text{ Points earned each day on average}=35.9090909\approx 35.91$    

If we need an integer answer, we can round 35.91 to 36. Therefore, we must  earn 36 points each day, on average to meet our goal.
