StartFraction 26 + 31 + 39 + 30 + 16 + 16 + 18 + 38 Over 8 EndFraction = StartFraction 214 Over 8 EndFraction = 26.75

Collette's work:

StartFraction 26 + 38 Over 2 EndFraction = StartFraction 64 Over 2 EndFraction = 32

Daniel's work:

StartFraction 26 + 31 + 39 + 30 + 18 + 38 Over 7 EndFraction = StartFraction 198 Over 7 EndFraction = 28.29

Lora's work:
