I set up a small shelf with my collection of singles. You could listen to tracks 1 and 2, described in the following two equations... (Please note that because my collection is still growing, the following equations are according to my collection at the time the piece was exhibitted)
Track 1
Cassette singles in my collection that made the Billboard�s Top 100:
| Artist | Song | Highest Charted Position | Bell Biv DeVoe | Gangsta | 21 | The Time | Jerk-Out | 9 | Duice | Dazzey Duks | 12 | Kid N' Play | Ain't Gonna Hurt Nobody | 51 | Kid N' Play | Ain't Gonna Hurt Nobody | 51 | H-Town | Knockin' Da Boots | 3 | Seiko and Donnie Wahlberg | The Right Combination | 54 | Tony! Toni! Ton�! | Feels Good | 9 | Soul II Soul | Keep On Movin | 11 | Riff | My Heart Is Failing Me | 25 | Riff | My Heart Is Failing Me | 25 | Paula Abdul | Forever Your Girl | 1 | Tony! Toni! Ton�! | If I Had No Loot | 7 | Troop | Whatever It Takes (To Make You Stay) | 63 | Milli Vanilli | All Or Nothing | 4 | G-Wiz | Teddy Bear | 73 | Bardeux | I Love To Bass | 68 | Boy II Men | I'll Make Love To You | 1 | Boy II Men | In The Still Of The Nite (I'll Remember) | 3 | Snow | Informer | 1 | L.L. Cool J | Around The Way Girl | 9 | Snap | Oops Up | 35 | Color Me Badd | I Adore Mi Amore | 1 | Color Me Badd | I Adore Mi Amore | 1 | Bobby Brown | Don't Be Cruel | 8 | Bobby Brown | Rock Wit'cha | 7 | Baby Face (Feat. Toni Braxton) | Give U My Heart | 29 | Joe Public | I Miss You | 55 | L.L. Cool J | Mama Said Knock You Out | 17 | Fu-Schnickens with Shaquille O'Neal (Shaq-Fu) | What's Up Doc? (Can We Rock?) | 39 | Another Bad Creation | Iesha | 9 | Jodeci | Come & Talk To Me | 11 | Boyz II Men | End Of The Road | 1 | Paula Abdul | Rush, Rush | 1 |
Sum of Highest Charted Positions = 715
Average of Highest Charted Position = (715 / 34 songs) = 21.02941176470588235
Therefore, mixing these singles together at equal volume produces a new single that peaks at 21.02941176470588235 on the Billboard charts.
Track 2
Cassette singles in my collection that never made the Billboard's Top 100:
| Artist | Song | Highest Charted Position | The Time | Why You Get Funky On Me | N/A | Sir Mix-A-Lot | Beepers | N/A | MCJ & Cool G | Smooth As Silk | N/A | Mr. Lee | I Like The Girls | N/A | Big Daddy Kane | Ain't No Half-Steppin' | N/A | Heavy D. & The Boyz | Gyrlz, They Love Me | N/A |
Sum of Highest Charted Positions = 6N/A
Average of Highest Charted Position = (6N/A) / 6 songs = N/A
Therefore, mixing these singles together at equal volume produces a new single that peaks at N/A on the Billboard charts. N/A is undefined, so the answer is ambiguous.
