What is the average of even numbers from 21 to 87? Here we will show you how to calculate the average of even numbers from 21 to 87.
To find the average of the even numbers from 21 to 87, we first calculate how many even numbers there are from 21 to 87. Then, we calculate the sum of even numbers from 21 to 87. And finally, we divide the sum by the number of even numbers to get the average.
The range is from 21 to 87, and the even numbers within that range are from 22 to 86. Therefore, the first even number in the sequence is 22, and the last even number in the sequence is 86.
Step 1) Calculate the total number of even numbers from 21 to 87
Here we calculate the total number of even numbers from 21 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 - 22 + 2) ÷ 2
tot = 66 ÷ 2
tot = 33
Total even numbers from 21 to 87 = 33
Step 2) Calculate the sum of even numbers from 21 to 87
To calculate the sum of even numbers from 21 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 = (33 ÷ 2) × (2 × 22 + (2 × (33 - 1))
sum = 16.5 × (44 + 64)
sum = 16.5 × 108
sum = 1782
Sum of even numbers from 21 to 87 = 1782
Step 3) Calculate the average of even numbers from 21 to 87
Almost done! Now we can calculate the average of even numbers from 21 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 = 1782 ÷ 33
Average = 54
Average of even numbers from 21 to 87 = 54
