Question

Mrs. Smith’s class measured the amount of rainfall each month during the school year. If the minimum rainfall was 1.7 centimeters and the maximum rainfall was 6.9 centimeters, find the midpoint.

Answer 1

The midpoint is the middle, which is the average. So you would do 6.9+1.7 which is 8.6 then divide it by 2, giving you the answer 4.3.

4.3 inches of rainfall is the midpoint
