How?
Because across the human population, there's almost nobody with 3 legs, but a considerable number of people with 1 leg. So the average number of legs across humanity is less than 2.
That means most people have an above average number of legs.
Also people with 0 legs bring the average down even further.
Hol up there, tell me about those people with 3 legs!
Oh just ask your mom, she'll tell you all about me!
One-legged people are letting the side down.
And here I thought I was decent in Math... Thank you for the explanation :)
