Hi, I'm proof-reading an article that contains the first sentence. My first reaction was to replace sentence number one with sentence number 3. But I'm wondering whether the term 'averagely' could in fact be used in this sense. If it can, then I would tend towards the formulation in the second example. Could someone please tell me whether the first and second sentences are correct ? Thanks!
1. The women averagely give birth to three children.
2. The women give birth to averagely three children.
3. The women give birth on average to three children.
