C. 85
D. 87

Respuesta :

Answer:

d) 87

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this lets set up the equation

[tex]\frac{85+70+98+x}{4} =85\\\frac{253+x}{4} =85[/tex]

then we multiply 4 on both sides

253+x=340

and subtract 253 on both sides

x=87

to double check take the averages

(87+85+70+98)/4=85
