The average weight of a chicken egg is 57 grams with a standard deviation of 5.1 grams. What is the average weight and standard deviation of a carton of a dozen eggs?

Respuesta :

hello

to solve this question, we need to know that 1 dozen contains 12 eggs

so, we can simply multiply our values by 12

average weight of a dozen eggs

[tex]\text{weight}=57\times12=684g[/tex]

standard deviation of a dozen eggs

[tex]S\mathrm{}D=5.1\times12=61.2g[/tex]

from the calculations above, the average weight of a dozen eggs is equal to 684g and the standard deviation of a dozen eggs is equal to 61.2g
