A paper boy sold magazines as well as papers.

Question

He took £50 from the sale of 25 magazines.
What was the average price of the magazines?

Answer 1

To find the average price of the magazines, we need to divide the total amount of money earned from selling the magazines by the number of magazines sold.

So, we have:

Average price of each magazine = Total amount earned from selling magazines / Number of magazines sold

We are given that the paper boy took £50 from the sale of 25 magazines.

Therefore, the average price of each magazine is:

Average price of each magazine = £50 / 25 = £2

So, the average price of each magazine was £2.
