Question

Find the mean and mode for this set of data. 5,6,8,3,5,7,4,11,5,7

Answer 1

6.1 mean

5 mode

Explanation:

Add all the numbers up for the mean (which in this case equaled 61 ) then divide the sum of all numbers by the amount of numbers you have. ( so 61 /10= 6.1)

To find the mode of the numbers line them up by least to greatest and the mode is the one in the middle.

3,4,5,5,5,6,7,7,8,11 (5 is the mode)

Answer 2

The mode is what number occurs most often. So in this set, the number that occurs most often is 5.

Mode = 5

The mean is the average of all the numbers in the set. To find the average of numbers, you add them all up then divide by how many numbers there are in the set. 5 + 6 + 8 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 4 + 11 + 5 + 7 = 61. 61 divided by 10 = 6.1 The answer is 6.1

Mean = 6.1

Good luck, my guy!
