A rowing team entered a 2000-meter race. The team's coach is analyzing the race based on the team's split times, as shown in the table above. A split time is the time it takes to complete a 500-meter segment of the race.
By the end of the season, the coach wants the team to reduce its mean split time by 10% as compared to this race. At the end of the season, what should the team's mean split time be, in seconds?

The correct answer is: 99


    Mean split time equals fraction numerator 109 plus 112 plus 111 plus 108 over denominator 4 end fraction equals 440 over 4 equals 110
    10% of 110 = 11
    110 – 11 = 99
    The mean split time at the end of season is 99.
