Three chemistry students measured the length of a copper bar. The recorded lengths were 5.05 cm, 5 cm , and 5.1 cm, What is the average length of the bar by showing my work ?



Answer :

5.05 + 5 + 5.1 = 15.15cm Then you just divide it by the amount of measurements you had like this:15.15 ÷ 3 = 5.04999971cm Then you can just round it to the 3rd figure: 5.05cm < And that's the mean/average length of the bar. :) (Or the one above if you want all of the decimals too)
