What is the average of odd numbers from 70 to 172? Here we will show you how to calculate the average of odd numbers from 70 to 172.
To find the average of the odd numbers from 70 to 172, we first calculate how many odd numbers there are from 70 to 172. Then, we calculate the sum of odd numbers from 70 to 172. And finally, we divide the sum by the number of odd numbers to get the average.
The range is from 70 to 172, and the odd numbers within that range are from 71 to 171. Therefore, the first odd number in the sequence is 71, and the last odd number in the sequence is 171.
Step 1) Calculate the total number of odd numbers from 70 to 172
Here we calculate the total number of odd numbers from 70 to 172 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 = (171 - 71 + 2) ÷ 2
tot = 102 ÷ 2
tot = 51
Total odd numbers from 70 to 172 = 51
Step 2) Calculate the sum of odd numbers from 70 to 172
To calculate the sum of odd numbers from 70 to 172, 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 = (51 ÷ 2) × (2 × 71 + (2 × (51 - 1))
sum = 25.5 × (142 + 100)
sum = 25.5 × 242
sum = 6171
Sum of odd numbers from 70 to 172 = 6171
Step 3) Calculate the average of odd numbers from 70 to 172
Almost done! Now we can calculate the average of odd numbers from 70 to 172 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 = 6171 ÷ 51
Average = 121
Average of odd numbers from 70 to 172 = 121
