q. Scott has different chores depending on the season. During the 5 warm months he mows the lawn, which takes about 1 in a half each week. During the 7 cold months, he shovels the snow when needed. This winter he shoveled show for total of 6 hours. How many chores did he do for average each month?

a. Is the answer 200 hours? Cause if i do 5 * 4 = 20 and than 20 * 1.5 = 200? If that's wrong do i * 6 * 7 and than add the answer with 20?

We do not have data for the number of chores, but we do have data for the number of hours worked.

Again, hours of chores/summer month = 5 * 4 * 1.5 = 30 hours per 20 weeks

If you do not have a typo, hours of chores/winter month = 6 hours per 28 weeks

Mean = ∑x/n = (30+6)/(20+28) = ?
