Wow! You guys did an awesome job with your first math blog. Remember when you are commenting on other's work, you are only looking at how they solved the problem. Also, if you make a mistake and need to edit, make sure you ask me and I will show you how.
Anyway, on to this week's question....
Student Council held a canned food drive for the Salvation Army. Here are the results for the fourth and fifth grades:
Class/Amount of Cans Collected
4B/245
4H/363
4K/332
5N/164
5O/265
5R/239
Student Council wants to announce how many cans each class collected as one number. What steps should they take to divide up the cans evenly? (This is finiding the mean) Then what number will they report to the school? Which class had the maximium and which had the minimum? What is the difference between the largest class and the smallest class? (This is called finding the range.)
When you post, the answer to the class mean should be in the title, and the rest of the answers should appear in the body of the post. You may use the calculator tool on the computer to help you solve the problem!
