Yes, that is the definition of average. It is also called the mean.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Mean average is the first average that is taught to people and is called the "Average". They may never learn the other two averages that are used:
The Mode Average is the only average which can be non-numeric, for example if you survey the preferred drinks at a coffee shop, you may find that most people prefer a Latte; in this case the Mode average would be a Latte and you could say "On average a Latte will be chosen by the customers" meaning that some people won't choose a Latter but the majority will.
The Mode Average can also have more than one value, for example the survey may show that Lattes and Americanos are equally popular.
The Mean Average is affected by extreme values, for example if most workers at a company earn 10,000 a year, but the boss earns 1,000,000 a year, his salary is going to increase the Mean Average (the less workers on 10,000 the greater the increase). The Median average, however, will not be so affected by extreme values (at the ends).
Census data generally uses Median Averages.
An unqualified Average (ie the word "Average" by itself) can be any of the three averages (Mean, Median or Mode), but most people will assume it to be the Mean average; an unscrupulous statistician can use an unqualified Average to put across a point of view that is skewed by the difference between the three averages - they rely on the public thinking that Average means "Mean Average" when they use the "Median Average" or "Mode Average".
the sum of the elements divided by the number of elements is the average
The average of a set of numbers is the sum of the numbers in the set divided by the number of elements in the set.
The mean is the sum of all elements in the sequence divided by the total number of elements. It is a statistic which represents the expected value of any term in the sequence (the average value).
If every element of B is contained in C, then B is a subset of C. If every element of B is contained in C and B is not the same as C, then B is a proper subset of C.The cardinal number of a set is the number of elements in the set.In this case, C has 8 elements, so B has at most 7 elements.
Average. this is because the typical is what the total divided by the number of items. this is also what the mean (or average) is.
the sum of the elements divided by the number of elements is the average
Yes, average is the sum of elements divided by the number of elements Exp:- x1=10, x2=20, x3=30, x4=10. then the average is 10+20+30+10 ------------------ 4 => 17.5 Average = sum of total of element ---------------------------------- no. of elements
the mean or average of the set
There is no average atomic number. The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in the nuclei of its atoms. It is a whole and finite number. The elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number on the periodic table.
That is called the average or mean.
The average of a set of numbers is the sum of the numbers in the set divided by the number of elements in the set.
There is not an isotope number on the Periodic Table of Elements. There is an atomic number (# of protons) and the average atomic mass. The average atomic mass is the weighted average of all the naturally occurring isotopes for each element. This number is not a whole number, because it is an average of all the isotopes for a particular element.
There is no average atomic number. The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in the nuclei of its atoms. It is a whole and finite number. The elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number on the periodic table.
If this is a homework related question, you really should consider trying to solve it yourself before looking at this answer. Otherwise, the value of the lesson, and the reinforcement provided by the assignment, will be lost to you. In a sequential search, where the elements are in a uniformly random distribution, the average number of comparisions to find a particular element is one half of the number of elements. Stated another way... In a sequential search, where the elements are in an arbitrary distribution, the average number of comparisions to find a random element is one half of the number of elements.
the elements in the periodic table are arranged according to the increasing atomic number and hence the elements are divided into 18 groups hence it would be easy to identify the elements
The total number of protons an neutrons on the average atom of that element. Because there is a variety of isotopes for all elements, this is not a whole number.
The average number of neutrons that a specific element has is equivilent to the element's atomic mass minus the that elements atomic number. For example Helium has 2 neutrons because its atomic mass (4) minus the atomic number (2) is 2.
