Question

I have 2 questions. 1. Find the mode and the median for this data set. 5,7,5,8,9,5,8. 2. Write 543.24 in expanded form.

Answer 1

To find the median, put the numbers in order to least to greatest, which would be 5, 5, 5, 7, 8, 8, 9. the median is the number in the middle, which is seven. the mode is the number that occurs most often in the set, which is 5 in this case (appears three times). 2. 543.24 in expanded form is essentially pulling the number apart into its different values places. in this case, it would be five hundred plus forty plus three plus two tenths plus four hundredths, which is 500 + 40 + 3 + .2 + .4. hope this helps!
