The sum of the numbers is:
[tex]6+10=16[/tex]
To find the average of the values we need to divide the sum of the values, in this case, 16, by the number of values, which is 2, as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} average=\frac{sum\text{ of terms}}{number\text{ of terms}} \\ average=\frac{16}{2} \\ average=8 \end{gathered}[/tex]
