What was the average number of buses passing through the toll plaza per week?

2530

2860

2070

2440

Correct Option: 4

First, let's add all bus numbers (in hundreds):

\newline

28.3 + 24.5 + 20.4 + 24.4 = 97.6

(hundreds)

Average number of buses =

\frac{97.6}{4}

24.4

(hundreds)

Converting to actual number:

24.4 × 100 = 2440

buses

Therefore, the average number of buses passing through the toll plaza per week was 2440.
