Average Cupcakes Sold Calculation

A local bakery tracks the number of cupcakes sold each day for a week and summarizes the following data:

• Monday: 20
• Tuesday: 25
• Wednesday: 15
• Thursday: 30
• Friday: 35
• Saturday: 40
• Sunday: 30

To find out the average number of cupcakes sold during the week, you need to calculate the sum of the cupcakes sold each day and then divide that sum by the total number of days.

Use the formula for average:

$$ ext{Average} =\frac{ ext{Total Sum}}{ ext{Number of Days}}$$
