Work Step by Step

We can estimate that the average wattage used by the light is the average of the maximum wattage of $200.49$ and the minimum wattage of $0$. We can find the average wattage: $W_{ave} = \frac{200.49+0}{2} = 100.245$ We can estimate that the average wattage used by the light is $~~100.245$ This incandescent light bulb is probably rated at $~~100~W$
