What is average?
The average is the middle value of set of numbers.
Formula for calculating average
Average = Sum of the values/ Number of values
According to the the given question we have
5 bags of apples.
From the given dot plot
mass of the apples of bag 1 = 2.5kg
mass of the apples of bag 2 = 3.5 kg
mass of the apples of bag 3 = 3.5 kg
mass of the apples of bag 4 = 5 kg
mass of the apples of bag 5 = 5.5 kg
Total mass of the 5 bags of apples = (2.5 + 3.5+ 3.5 +5 + 5.5)kg = 20 kg
For the mass of each bag we have to calculate the average
⇒ mass of each bag = total mass/ number of bags =[tex]\frac{20}{5}[/tex] = 4kg.
Hence, the mass of each bag will be 4kg.
