What is the average of even numbers from 71 to 86? Here we will show you how to calculate the average of even numbers from 71 to 86.
To find the average of the even numbers from 71 to 86, we first calculate how many even numbers there are from 71 to 86. Then, we calculate the sum of even numbers from 71 to 86. And finally, we divide the sum by the number of even numbers to get the average.
The range is from 71 to 86, and the even numbers within that range are from 72 to 86. Therefore, the first even number in the sequence is 72, and the last even number in the sequence is 86.
Step 1) Calculate the total number of even numbers from 71 to 86
Here we calculate the total number of even numbers from 71 to 86 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 - 72 + 2) ÷ 2
tot = 16 ÷ 2
tot = 8
Total even numbers from 71 to 86 = 8
Step 2) Calculate the sum of even numbers from 71 to 86
To calculate the sum of even numbers from 71 to 86, 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 = (8 ÷ 2) × (2 × 72 + (2 × (8 - 1))
sum = 4 × (144 + 14)
sum = 4 × 158
sum = 632
Sum of even numbers from 71 to 86 = 632
Step 3) Calculate the average of even numbers from 71 to 86
Almost done! Now we can calculate the average of even numbers from 71 to 86 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 = 632 ÷ 8
Average = 79
Average of even numbers from 71 to 86 = 79
