.
Jake got the following scores in the first 5 quizzes: 11, 9, 13, 18, 17. 
What score must Jake get in the next test for him to get an average of 14?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


<pre>
    {{{(11+9+13+18+17+x)/6}}} = 14

    11 + 9 + 13 + 18 + 17 + x = 14*6

             68 + x           =  84

                  x           =  84 - 68 = 16.


<U>ANSWER</U>.  16 scores.
</pre>
