Question 49450: Can someone help me on this problem?
Jose has savings accounts for each of his five children. They contain $215, $156, $318, $75, and $25. I need to find the median and the mean amount of money per account.

The mean is calculated below.
(215+156+318+75+25)/5 = 157.8 (or $157.80 per account)
The median or $25, $75, $156, $215, and $318 is $156.
