10 people read 65 minutes per day so 10×65=650

the remaining 5 read 35 minutes per day so 5×35=175

650+175=825 minutes
Then to find the average, divide it by the total number of people, 15

825/15=55

The group reads an average of 55 minutes each day

The average reading time for the entire book club each day is 55 minutes

How to find the average reading time

  • Total people in the book club = 15

  • Time spent for 10 people = 65 minutes each

Total time spent for 10 people = 10 × 65

= 650 minutes

  • Time spent for 5 people = 35 minutes each

Total time spent for 5 people = 5 × 35

= 175 minutes

Total time spent reading per day = 650 minutes + 175 minutes

= 825 minutes

Average reading time = Total time spent reading per day ÷ Total people in the book club

= 825 minutes / 15

= 55 minutes
