megan recorded the temperature in her garden each morning for 6 days.
the mean of her six recorded temperatures was 2.1 degrees celsius.
the temperature on one of the days was 4.1 degrees celsius.
what was the mean of her other 5 recorded temperatures?
give your answer as a decimal.

so, knowing that the mean for the 6 days was 2.1, the sum of the tempertures must be $6*2.1=13.2$. Now, we can subtract 4.1 out to get the sum of the temerpatures for the remianing 5 days, which is $9.1$. To get the mean, we divide by 5 and get $\frac{9.1}{5}=1.82$.
