Answer:

The average of all 5 numbers is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Two of the numbers average 12. That means that their total is 2*12 = 24

Three of the other numbers average 7. That means that their total is 7*3 = 21

The total score for the 5 numbers is 24 + 21 = 45

The average for all 5 numbers is 45/5 = 9
