    Average atomic mass = 46.91466 amu

    Explanation:

    Step 1: Data given

    Isotopes of titanium

    46Ti = 70.900% ⇒ 45.95263 amu

    48Ti = 10.000 % ⇒ 47.94795 amu

    50Ti = 19.100 % ⇒ 49.94479 amu

    Step 2: Calculate the average atomic mass of titanium

    Average atomic mass = 0.7090 * 45.95263 + 0.10 * 47.94795 + 0.1910 * 49.94479

    Average atomic mass = 46.91466 amu
