Question

Find the mean, median, and mode for the
following data set:
1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15

Answer 1

$\text {Hi! Let's Find the Mean, Median and Mode!}$

$\text {Mean:}$

$\text {\underline {The Fisrt Step is to Add}}$

$\text {1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15=64}$

$\text {\underline {The Final Step is to Divide 8}}$

$\text {64/8=}$

$\text {The Mean Is:}$

$\fbox {8}$

$\text {Median:}$

$\text {To Find the Median you are finding the Middle Number in the data set.}$ $\text {Put your Left Pointer Finger on 1 and your Right Pointer Finger on 15.}$ $\text {Once you do that you move your Left Finger to the Right and your Right Finger}$ $\text {to the Left.}$

$\text {Your Left Finger should stop at 7. Your Right Finger should stop at 9.}$

$\text {Since our Left is on 7 and Right is on 9 we find the middle number between}$ $\text {7 and 9. You get 8.}$

$\text {The Median Is:}$

$\fbox {8}$

$\text {Mode:}$

$\text {Finding the Mode means to find the number that shows the most.}$ $\text {Since there is no number in the data set that shows the most that means}$ $\text {all the values show only 1 time.}$

$\text {The Mode Is:}$

$\fbox {All Values Appear 1 Time}$

$\text {Best of Luck!}$
