(This is analogous to calculating averages of discrete distributions, where you multiply each value by the number of times it occurs, add the results, and divide by the number of values.

However, a gas of many molecules has a predictable distribution of molecular speeds, known as the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution. The average and most probable velocities of molecules having the Maxwell-Boltzmann speed distribution, as well as the rms velocity, can be calculated from the temperature and molecular mass.
