Calculate the Average: Finding Mean of 23, 4, 28, and 1

Question

Calculate the average

of $23,4,28,$ and $1$ .

00:06 Let's calculate the average.

00:09 First, we divide the total sum by the number of values.

00:13 So, let's add up all the numbers.

00:22 Then, divide this sum by four, since there are four numbers.

00:44 And that's how we find the average.

To solve this problem and calculate the average of the numbers $23$ , $4$ , $28$ , and $1$ , follow these steps:

Step 1: Calculate the sum of the numbers:
$23 + 4 + 28 + 1 = 56$
Step 2: Count the number of items in the set.
There are 4 numbers: $23, 4, 28,$ and $1$ .
Step 3: Divide the sum by the count of numbers to find the average:
$\frac{56}{4} = 14$

Therefore, the average of the numbers is $14$ .
