the total for the first 5 weeks is 85310.
\n" ); document.write( "the average for the 5 weeks is equal to 17062.
\n" ); document.write( "add 10 to that to get 17072.
\n" ); document.write( "multiply that by 6 to get 102432.
\n" ); document.write( "the number of passengers in the sixth week needs to be 102432 minus 85310 = 17122.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the average for the first 5 weeks is 85310 / 5 = 17062.
\n" ); document.write( "the average for the full 6 weeks is 102432 / 6 = 17072.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "he needs 17122 passengers in the 6th week to get an average of 17072 each week.\r
