Answer:

100 red bricks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say red bricks is equal to 5x

Gray bricks is equal to 2x

We have an equation

2x + 5x = 140

= 7x = 140

Divide through by 7 to get the value of x

X = 140/7

X = 20

Red bricks = 5(x)

= 5(20)

= 100

Gray bricks = 2(x)

= 2(20)

= 40

Therefore in conclusion the number of red bricks is 100.

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

13.3

There is an equation that helps

mean= (All of the numbers in the data added) divided by (the number of numbers in the data)

2.) divided by 6 (because there is 6 numbers in the data)

3.) round it to the nearest number (numbers from the one's place being 4-0 means go back or 5-9 means go forward a number)

which in this case it should be 13.33333...=13.3
