First sort the numbers into ascending order (from least to greatest):\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "67,69,76,79,79,81,83,84,86,87,88,89,91,92,92,93,94,96\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Sample Mean:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find the mean, add up all of the numbers and divide the sum by the number of numbers (which in this case is 18).\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the mean is 84.7777777777778\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Median:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find the median, count off about 9 spaces (just take half of the size of the list, which is 18) from the beginning of the list until you hit the middle. Now count count off about 9 spaces from the end of the list until you hit the middle.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "67, 69, 76, 79, 79, 81, 83, 84, \"highlight%2886%29\", \"highlight%2887%29\", 88, 89, 91, 92, 92, 93, 94, 96\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since the middle is in between the numbers 86 and 87, add them up and divide that sum by 2.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"Median=%2886%2B87%29%2F2=173%2F2=86.5\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the median is 86.5\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Mode:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find the mode, simply look for any repeating numbers. If there is one number that occurs more frequently than any other number, then that number is the mode.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In this case, the numbers 79 and 79 repeat themselves 2 times. This is the most frequent number.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the mode is 79\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
