Question 37322: Solve:
Sara recorded the following temperature readings in degrees Fahrenheit at 7 A.M. each morning for eight days in a row: -11°, -13°, -6°, 8°, 11°, -6°, -20°, and -25°. What was the average temperature? Round to the nearest hundredth when necessary.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! To find the average of eight items, we add them together and divide by eight. So
-11° + -13° + -6° + 8° + 11° + -6° + -20° + -25° = -62
Now we divide by 8 and get
-62 / 8 = -7.75 degrees
