The most complete answer is that it's the "arithmetic mean," but usually it's shortened to just "mean" or "average." The shortened versions can sometimes be misleading; for example, there is more than one kind of "mean" (like the geometric mean and harmonic mean, for examples). Also, the term "average" often refers not to what you're talking about but the "mode" or "median" instead. Usually this isn't a problem, but if you want to be crystal clear to someone use the term "arithmetic mean."

It's the mean of the quantities, also known as the average.
