The arithmetic mean of 68 and 3 is #35 1/2#

Explanation:

To find the answer we need to know what the arithmetic mean is. I can point you to for instance http://www.statisticshowto.com/arithmetic-mean/

If we have n numbers #a_1, a_2, ..., a_n#, the arithmetic mean is simply #(a_1, a_2, ..., a_n)/n#

In our instance we have #a_1=68, a_2=3#
Therefore, the arithmetic mean is #(68+3)/2=35 1/2#
