Question

A data set has a RANGE of 24 and a MEAN of 104. If the data set contains three numbers and the highest number is 118, then what are the other two numbers in the data set?

Answer 1

highest number is 118

middle number is 100

lowest number is 94

Explanation:

R=24---between high and low is 24 numbers

M=104---average of the three numbers

highest number is 118

therefore if you subtract 24 from 118 therefore the lowest number is 94

Then i used a mean calculator and went up from 95 to 100 before the means matched.
