Mean: To find mean you do the same as you would to find an average. Add up all of the numbers and divide by how many numbers are there. So, 8.3 + 4.5 + 6.2 + 9.6 + 4.3 + 11.2 + 5.9 + 9.7 + 10.5 = 70.2 Then divide by 9 since you have 9 numbers. 70.2 / 9 = 7.8
Median: To find median you set up the data from least to greatest and cross out one number from each side until you are left with one number as the middle number. 4.3, 4.5, 5.9, 6.2, 8.3, 9.6, 9.7, 10.5, 11.2 4.5, 5.9, 6.2, 8.3, 9.6, 9.7, 10.5 5.9, 6.2, 8.3, 9.6, 9.7 6.2, 8.3, 9.6 = 8.3 Mode: Mode is the most, meaning the number that appears the most in your set of data. In this case there is no mode because in your set there is no number that occurs more than once.
For the answer to the question above, If you've noticed, the statement mentioned "a number". Let's assign x to be the number. The first statement is twice a number (2x). Then, decreased by the quotient of that number and 2 (-x/2). Lastly, the statement at least 12 is written as >12. So the answer is 2x - (x/2) >12
