Which let statement (s) would you use?

This is the concept of statistics, given that there are 650 students and all of them read a total of 18,996 pages. We are required to get the average number of pages that they all read;

Average, otherwise known as the mean is the calculated 'central' value of a set of numbers;

The formula for mean is given by;

mean = (sum) / (count)

in our case:

sum=18,996

count=650

thus;

mean=18996/650

=29.23

Here we can conclude that the average number of pages read by each student in the High School was 29.23
