We have the distribution;

74, 90, 21, 68, 62, 84, 34, 87,74.

Let's arrange this from ascending to descending order, we obtain;

i. The mean or average of this distribution is

$\begin{gathered} (21+34+62+68+74+74+84+87+90)/(9)=(594)/(9) \\ \operatorname{mean}=66 \end{gathered}$

ii. The median is the central value, in this distribution, there are 9 values, so the median value is the 5th value.

$\operatorname{median}=74$

iii. The mode is the value with the highest frequency, this is the most occurring value, in this distribution;

$\text{mode}=74$

iv. The range is the difference between the highest and lowest values, this is;

$\begin{gathered} 90-21=69 \\ \text{Range}=69 \end{gathered}$
