You can  put this solution on YOUR website! Find the mean and the median. 
–2, 7/4 ,3/4  , 4, 9 
--------------------------- 
Mean: add the numbers and divide by 5. 
11 10/4 = 13 1/2 = 27/2 
(27/2)/5 = 27/10 = 2.7 is the mean 
----------------- 
Median: 
Put the numbers in ascending order  
and choose the middle number which 
is 7/4
