Average is the (sum of the numbers)/(the # of numbers)
\n" ); document.write( "Given 3 numbers and the average, plug them into the equation, where x is the unknown 4th score
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "(91 + 89 + 84 + x)/4 = 90
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for x
\n" ); document.write( "Combine like terms
\n" ); document.write( "(264 + x)/4 = 90
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply by 4
\n" ); document.write( "264 + x = 360
\n" ); document.write( "Isolate x
\n" ); document.write( "x = 360 - 264
\n" ); document.write( "x = 96
\n" ); document.write( "...
