Find the average of first 10 multiples of 71. 35.52. 37.53. 38.54. 40.5

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 38.5

Given:

First 10 multiples of 7

Formula used:

Average = a × (n + 1)/2

Where, ‘a’ denotes the first number and ‘n’ denotes number of terms

Calculation:

Average = 7 × (10 + 1)/2

7 × 11/2 = 38.5

 The average of the first 10 multiples of  is 38.5

Alternate method:

Among 10 terms, the middle term will be the  average of 5th term and 6th term and it will be the average of the whole series.

The 5th term is 7 × 5 = 35

The 6th term is 7 × 6 = 42

Average of 5th and 6th term = (35 + 42)/2 = 38.5

 The average of the first 10 multiples of 7 is 38.5
