You can put this solution on YOUR website! What is the mean, median and mode of the following numbers: 68,72,50,77,76,68,78,68,50,72,61,74,77,76,69
Okay, so first off, the MEAN of a set of numbers is just the average!
So, first add all the numbers together.
68+72+50+77+76+68+50+72+61+74+77+76+69=1,036
Then, divide the sum of all the numbers by the amount of numbers that
were in the list.
1,036/15=69.067. That number is the mean.
The MEDIAN is the number in the list that is in the middle in order of least to greatest.
First step is to write the whole list in chronological order.
50,50,61,68,68,68,69,72,72,74,76,76,77,77,78
Then, find the middle number.
72 is the middle number, so it is your median!
The MODE is the number that is most frequent. Yours is 68, it occurs three times.
I hope I helped!
