Question

Rice consumed in a school under the mid-day meal program for 5 consecutive days is 15.750 kg, 14.850 kg, 16.500 kg, 14.700 kg, and 17.700 kg. Find the average rice consumption for the 5 days.

Answer 1

Rice consumed for 5 days in kg = 15.750, 14.850, 16.500 14.700, 17.700

Average consumption = \(\frac {Total \,consumption}{No.\,of\, days}\)

∴ The average rice consumption for the 5 days = 15.900 kg.
