Maths Challenge - Thursday 16th July

Good morning year 6,

Today's lesson is about a mathematical word called 'the mean'. The mean is a way of finding an average from a series of numbers. For example if a footballer score 1 goal in the first game, 3 in the second and 2 in the third - the average number of goals per game is 2. 

We get this by using the calculations 6 divided by 3.

6 is the total number of goals

3 is the number of games.
