Mean: Add the data points and then divide the sum by the number of data points

Median: Put the data points into numerical order. There are an odd number of data points, so the one in the middle when they are in numerical order is the mean.

Mode: Count the number of times each data value occurs. The one that occurs the most often is the mode. If more than one value occurs most often, the distribution is multi-modal (two mode values: bimodal, three is called trimodal)

Range: Subtract the smallest data value from the largest.

Midrange: Add the smallest data value to the largest and divide the sum by 2.
