I wonder in math we find an average value of a set of numbers to find the most common number and give us an idea as to an overall trend. The average number is the middle value that can be found by dividing the total of all values by a number of values in a set. Let’s look at an example to get a better idea of what an averages on the football team. The trainer counts the ages of every player to find out what the average age of the team is Zoe is eight years old.

Michael is seven. Anna is eight Joe is six clear is seven and John is six years old to find the average age of the team. We must count up all the ages and divide by the number of values 8 + 7 + 8 + 6 + 7 + 6 is equal to 4. You there are six players on the team. So we divides a total by six 42 divided by six equals 7. This means that the average age of the football team is seven years old the average number represents the most common age of the players on the football team. You can find the average of almost anything the average time average height average speed and so on.
