1 answer

To calculate the final average height of the five plants, we need to add the heights together and then divide by the number of plants.

The heights of the plants are: 15, 18, 21, 19, and 20 cm.

  1. Sum the heights: \[ 15 + 18 + 21 + 19 + 20 = 93 \text{ cm} \]

  2. Divide by the number of plants (5): \[ \text{Average height} = \frac{93}{5} = 18.6 \text{ cm} \]

Thus, the final average height of the group of plants is 18.6 cm.

So the correct answer is 18.6.
