Question 769949: Eric has scored 33,25 ,23 ,17 and points in his four basketball games so far. How many points does he need to score in his next game so that his average (mean) is 25 points per game?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Average for 5 games = 25
Total points = 5 * 25 = 125
Totaling 33,25,23 and 17 = 98
125 - 98 = 27
Eric requires 27 points.
Hope this helps.
