🧩 Why Averages Matter
Averages help summarise data: average test score, average temperature, average income. Understanding averages is key to interpreting statistics.
🎯 How Abacus Teaches Averages
Combine all beads: Add all numbers to get total beads. Divide equally: Split total into groups according to count. Count one group: That’s the average. Practice: “Find the average of 3, 5, 7” (15 ÷ 3 = 5). “Average of 10, 20, 30” (60 ÷ 3 = 20).
💡 A Parent’s Example
“My son’s test scores were 70, 80, 90. He added to 240, divided by 3 = 80 average. Now he calculates his own class average.”
You might wonder, “What about weighted averages?” Start with simple averages, then introduce weights later.
