In words: Add up all the numbers in boxes 1 through 8. Divide the total by 8. The value thus obtained is the average.
Psuedocode:
1. Initialize a number sum to 0.
2. Loop through boxes 1 to 8, each time adding the value of the current box to sum.
i.e. sum = sum + value(current box).
3. Average = sum / 8.
(Either one of the methods to explain the algorithm is acceptable.)
