Assume the weight of a bag of peanut M&Ms is normally distributed with a mean of 115.75 grams and a standard deviation of 16.8 grams. What would be the lowest weight, on average, of 52 randomly sampled M&M bags in order for that weight to be in the 84th percentile of all possible 52-bag averages? Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
