Prophets calculation:
3 x 1 = 3
4 x 1 = 4
5 x 7 = 35
6 x 5 = 30
7 x 1 = 7
8 x 2 = 16

3 + 4 + 35 + 30 + 7 + 16 = 95
95 ÷ 17 = 5.59

Apostles calculation:
3 x 1 = 3
4 x 10 = 40
5 x 36 = 180
6 x 23 = 138
7 x 22 = 154
8 x 16 = 128
9 x 1 = 9
10 x 1 = 10
14 x 1 = 14

3 + 40 + 180 + 138 + 154 + 128 + 9 + 10 + 14 = 676
676 ÷ 111 = 6.09
