The number of minutes Samantha needs to run on Friday to reach her goal is 45 minutes.

Average

  • Monday = 45 minutes
  • Tuesday = 30 minutes
  • Wednesday = 55 minutes
  • Thursday = 25 minutes
  • Friday = x minutes

Average = (Monday + Tuesday + Wednesday + Thursday + Friday) / 5

40 = (45 + 30 + 55 + 25 + x) / 5

40 × 5 = 155 + x

200 = 155 + x

200 - 155 = x

45 = x

x = 45 minutes
