A library bar graph shows books issued: Mon 25, Tue 35, Wed 30, Thu 40, Fri 20. The librarian says, 'On average, more than 30 books were issued per day.' Is the statement true, and what is the actual daily average?

Question

Accepted Answer

False, average is exactly 30. Total = 25+35+30+40+20 = 150. Average = 150/5 = 30, which is not more than 30, so the claim is false.
