Explain simply why 80 is the correct answer to: The company's data entry team had 5 employees working on a large project. Rudy types 64 words per minute, Joyce types 76 words per minute, Gladys types 91 words per minute, Lisa types 80 words per minute and Mike types 89 words per minute. What is the team's average typed words per minute?. Explanation:
Rudy types 64, Joyce types 76, Gladys types 91, Lisa types 80 and Mike types 89 so 64 + 76 + 91 + 80 + 89 = 400. There are 5 team members, so they type at an average speed of 400 / 5 = 80 words per minute.
