In a sample of 80 beetles, 50 beetles had 4 spots each, and the rest had 6 spots each. What was the average number of spots per beetle? Show your work below.

Average spots per beetle = Total spots for all beetles / Total beetles
Average spots per beetle = (50(4) + 6(80 - 50))/80
Average spots per beetle =(200 + 6(30))/80
Average spots per beetle = (200 + 180)/80
Average spots per beetle = (380)/80
Average spots per beetle = 4.75 spots
