Question

The list below shows the number of push-ups students could complete in 1 minute. 14, 19, 20, 12, 14 Find the mean and median number of push-ups completed. Please write the answer in this format: mean= ___ median= ____

Answer 1

Answer:

Mean= 15.8, Median= 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean, we need to find the average. We will simply need to add up all of the values and divide by how many there are.

Therefore:

$\frac{14 + 19 + 20 + 12 + 14}{5}$= 15.8 = Mean.

To find the median, you can arrange the numbers in increasing order and find the middle value. You can do this like so:

12, 14, 14, 19, 20

The number in the middle of 14.
