please help me!!!​

Answer 1

Answer:

42 and 41

Step-by-step explanation:

So how I did it tbh I went everywere with this but I went backwards because the how you find the mean of something is adding all the values and then dividing them by the number of values(40+41+42+45+45+48+54=315, 315divided by 7=45) but anyway 45x7(because multiplication is the opposite of division)that equals 315-232 which is the answer to 40+45+48+54+45 which were the numbers that were given
