Calculate the Average: Finding the Mean of 8 and 0

To solve this problem, we'll calculate the average of the two numbers provided, which are 8 and 0.

We approach this problem using the formula for the average of two numbers:

• $\text{Average} = \frac{a + b}{2}$

where $a = 8$ and $b = 0$.

Let's perform the calculations:

• Step 1: Add the two numbers: $8 + 0 = 8$.
• Step 2: Divide the sum by 2 to find the average: $\frac{8}{2} = 4$.

The average of 8 and 0 is $4$.

Therefore, the correct answer to the problem is $\textbf{4}$, which corresponds to choice 3 in the provided answer choices.
