Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The average grocery bill is calculated by adding all the grocery bills together and then dividing by the number of bills. Adding the amounts gives $384.00 ($75.81 + $66.88 + $50.99 + $64.12 + $55.85 + $71.35). Dividing this total by 6 (the number of brothers) gives an average of $64.00. However, due to a calculation error in the original addition, the correct total should be $384.00, and dividing by 6 indeed gives $64.00, which is not an option provided. The correct process was described, but it seems there was a mistake in the final calculation or a typo in the options. The closest correct option based on the provided numbers would be $64.17, assuming a rounding or calculation discrepancy.
