Question

-
A. Do I just add them all??

Answer 1

You have to add all together, then take that sum and divide it by how many numbers there are. For instance you have 3 numbers . So you would do 4.3 + 3.7 + 3.13 which equals 11.13. Then you take that number and divide it by 3 which is equal to 3.71 or just 3.7 depending on if you teacher makes your round or not.

Hope this helped.. Ask anymore question Ill try my best to answer them while Im online (:

Answer 2

Answer 3

Yeah it is and no problem.. But like i said don't forget to put it as 3.7 (only if your teacher is picky about rounding)

Answer 4

Kk so 15 lbs. 24 Oz divided by 4 equals??

Answer 5

15.24 divided by 24 equals 0.64..

BUTTT..
Make sure you know the order of the problem because by simply switching 15.24 and 24 make a difference sooo..
24 divided by 15.24 equals 1.57 (1.6)

See the difference? so make sure you know the order and it will one of those two answers I provided for you.

Answer 6

don't you have 2 like um... divide 15.24 by 4 and get a quotient like 3.81... ps I'm in 5th grade but trust me and my teachers I'm... SMART
