Turtles can live a long time. This stem-and-leaf plot shows the ages (in years) of the turtles in the reptile house of the Kalamazoo Zoo:
$$ \begin{array}{c | c@{~~}c@{~~}c@{~~}c@{~~}c@{~~}c} 0 & 1 & 1 & 2 & 5 & 6 & 7 \\ 1 & 0 & 0 & 3 & 8 & 9 & \\ 2 & 0 & 4 & 6 & 7 && \\ 3 & 1 & 6 &&&& \\ 4 &&&&&& \\ 5 & 4 &&&&& \\ 6 & 3 & 7 &&&& \end{array} $$
What is the average age of the turtles (in years)?

The sum of their ages is 440, there are twenty turtles present...

Divide 440 by 20 to find the average.
