Question

Find the mean and the median of this data set: 9, 6, 5, 3, 28, 6, 4, 7

Answer 1

Answer:

The means is 8.5 The Median is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

1) to find the mean just Simply add all the numbers together and divided by how many numbers that is giving. (Because you are simply finding the average)

9+6+5+3+28+6+4+7=68

68 divided by 8 = 8.5

2) to find the median simply organize the numbers from least to greatest Like this: (3,4,5,6,6,7,9,28) Then keep crossing out from both sides teal you find the middle Number.

If there a odd amount of number the median will be one Number, if even 2 numbers ( if 2 numbers just add them both and divide by 2)

In This Case the Median is 6,6 but Its actually 6 Why (6+6=12) and (12/2=6) so your median is 6.

Hopes This helps!

Answer 2

The median is 6.5
The mean is 8.86
