Question 40328: Top electronics is a small business with five employees. The mean weekly salary for the five workers is $360. If the weekly salaries of four workers are $340,$340,$345, and $425, what is the salary of the fifth worker?
Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The mean is the average of a group of numbers. If the mean is $360 and there are five salaries involved, the total can be found by
Average = Total / number
Total = (Average)(Number)
Total = $360 * 5 = $1800
Since four of the salaries are spoken for, we add them, and subtract their total from $1800...that will give us our answer...
so $340 + $340 + $345 + $425 = $1450
and $1800 - $1450 =
$350
