You need an average to be able to track and see exactly how much of whatever was used. It combines your data to tell you which was used more.

add up all the values and divide by number of values you have.
for example: 2,9,7,5,4,2,2,2,1,15,7
1st you would add them up (56)...
...then divide by the 11 because that's how many numbers there are
answer= 5.09
also known as the average

One experiment might be slightly different than another, or even completely different. If you have an average, the results show the typical result, rather than just one.
