The average temp for 3 days was 92 degress, if the temps for the first day was 96 deg. & the 2nd day was 86 deg. what was the temp on the third day? I think the book is wrong.

I would say the correct answer is 94 degrees but a smart lawyer might disagree.

I see where you got the 96 deg, and the 86 deg, but what thin air (actually I was thinking of somewhere else) did you pull the 91 deg out of? I'm just wondering The math you have there is correct. But like said before...too damn hot

| I thought he may have come up with 93. without the formula Average between 86 and 96 = 91 93 and 91 average 92. Wrong I know but there is some reasoning at least.

| Ok average temp is in the middle, Right? 96-5=91 86+5=91 You have to find a common #, 91 is the correct answer Referance Math 4 K12 chapter 41 pg. 173.   
I know better than to post when I have had a  200 plus is rong, u like that rong. just rong.

one big one (12/4/2008) Ok average temp is in the middle, Right?Wrong! You are confusing median and mean. The number thats in the middle is called the MEDIAN. The MEAN (or average) of the data set you provide is 92. The median is NOT neccesarily always equal to the mean (average)...as in this case, and caused you to get a wrong answer. Median = 91 Mean = 92 Come-on Man. What grade math is this? Oh yea...4th grade.

You could have claimed that you passed out while still logged on, and the 4th grader has a mean streak. 
WOW!!!!! WHAT A RIDE.
