Weighted mean questions: a person makes 3 investments and earns 7%, 8% and 9%. The average rate of return earned is (7+8+9)/3 = 8% only if: a person invests ,000 at 7% for one year, ,000 at 8% and ,000 at 9%. What average rate of return was earned on the three investments: your parents have assembled the following investment portfolio and estimated the following rates of return:
