What is the average of odd numbers from 6 to 16? Here we will show you how to calculate the average of odd numbers from 6 to 16.
To find the average of the odd numbers from 6 to 16, we first calculate how many odd numbers there are from 6 to 16. Then, we calculate the sum of odd numbers from 6 to 16. And finally, we divide the sum by the number of odd numbers to get the average.
The range is from 6 to 16, and the odd numbers within that range are from 7 to 15. Therefore, the first odd number in the sequence is 7, and the last odd number in the sequence is 15.
Step 1) Calculate the total number of odd numbers from 6 to 16
Here we calculate the total number of odd numbers from 6 to 16 by entering the first and last odd number in the sequence into our formula. Here is the formula and the math:
tot = (last - first + 2) ÷ 2
tot = (15 - 7 + 2) ÷ 2
tot = 10 ÷ 2
tot = 5
Total odd numbers from 6 to 16 = 5
Step 2) Calculate the sum of odd numbers from 6 to 16
To calculate the sum of odd numbers from 6 to 16, you enter the total odd numbers (tot) from Step 1 and the first odd number in the sequence into our formula. Here is the formula and the math:
sum = (tot ÷ 2) × (2 × first + (2 × (tot - 1))
sum = (5 ÷ 2) × (2 × 7 + (2 × (5 - 1))
sum = 2.5 × (14 + 8)
sum = 2.5 × 22
sum = 55
Sum of odd numbers from 6 to 16 = 55
Step 3) Calculate the average of odd numbers from 6 to 16
Almost done! Now we can calculate the average of odd numbers from 6 to 16 by dividing the sum of odd numbers from Step 2 by the total odd numbers from Step 1. Here is the formula, the math, and the answer:
Average = sum ÷ tot
Average = 55 ÷ 5
Average = 11
Average of odd numbers from 6 to 16 = 11
