What is the average of even numbers from 1 to 87? Here we will show you how to calculate the average of even numbers from 1 to 87.
To find the average of the even numbers from 1 to 87, we first calculate how many even numbers there are from 1 to 87. Then, we calculate the sum of even numbers from 1 to 87. And finally, we divide the sum by the number of even numbers to get the average.
The range is from 1 to 87, and the even numbers within that range are from 2 to 86. Therefore, the first even number in the sequence is 2, and the last even number in the sequence is 86.
Step 1) Calculate the total number of even numbers from 1 to 87
Here we calculate the total number of even numbers from 1 to 87 by entering the first and last even number in the sequence into our formula. Here is the formula and the math:
tot = (last - first + 2) ÷ 2
tot = (86 - 2 + 2) ÷ 2
tot = 86 ÷ 2
tot = 43
Total even numbers from 1 to 87 = 43
Step 2) Calculate the sum of even numbers from 1 to 87
To calculate the sum of even numbers from 1 to 87, you enter the total even numbers (tot) from Step 1 and the first even number in the sequence into our formula. Here is the formula and the math:
sum = (tot ÷ 2) × (2 × first + (2 × (tot - 1))
sum = (43 ÷ 2) × (2 × 2 + (2 × (43 - 1))
sum = 21.5 × (4 + 84)
sum = 21.5 × 88
sum = 1892
Sum of even numbers from 1 to 87 = 1892
Step 3) Calculate the average of even numbers from 1 to 87
Almost done! Now we can calculate the average of even numbers from 1 to 87 by dividing the sum of even numbers from Step 2 by the total even numbers from Step 1. Here is the formula, the math, and the answer:
Average = sum ÷ tot
Average = 1892 ÷ 43
Average = 44
Average of even numbers from 1 to 87 = 44
