Question

The average two numbers is 32 one of the numbers is 14 what is the value of the other number

Answer 1

50

Explanation:

To find the average of two numbers, add them together and then divide the sum by 2.

1. Since you were given the average and one of the numbers, set up the equation:
`(n+14)/(2)=32`

Solve for n:

a. Multiply both sides by 2: n + 14 = 32(2)

n + 14 = 64

b. Subtract 14 from both sides: n = 64 - 14 = 50

Check!!

(50 + 14) / 2 = 64/2 = 32 :)
