Since there are 8 total, and 4 is the amount to find as a fraction, we simply divide 4 by 8 to get 4/8
First, order the number set from least to greatest:
3 , 4 , 4 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 12 , 14 , 16 , 20
Mean: You find the mean by combining all the terms, and dividing by the amount of the terms there are in the number set:
(3 + 4 + 4 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 12 + 14 + 16 + 20)/10
(97)/10 = 9.7
Mean: 9.7
Median: You find the median by first ordering the number set from least to greatest, and finding the middle number. Note that if there is a even number of numbers in the set, you find the mean with the two given median digits:
8 & 9 are the median numbers:
(8 + 9)/2 = (17)/2 = 8.5
Median: 8.5
Mode: The mode is the number(s) in the set that shows up the most:
Mode: 4 (shows up one more time than all other numbers)
Range: The range can be found by subtracting the least number from the greatest number in the number set:
Range: 20 - 3 = 17
Range: 17

Answer:
Let's define the high temperature as T.
We know that:
"four times T, was more than 2*T plus 66°C"
(i assume that the temperature is in °C)
We can write this inequality as:
4*T > 2*T + 66°C
Now we just need to solve this for T.
subtracting 2*T in both sides, we get:
4*T - 2*T > 2*T + 66°C - 2*T
2*T > 66°C
Now we can divide both sides by 2:
2*T/2 > 66°C/2
T > 33°C
So T was larger than 33°C
Notice that T = 33°C is not a solution of the inequality, then we should use the symbol ( for the set notation.
Then the range of possible temperatures is:
(33°C, ...)
Where we do not have an upper limit, so we could write this as:
(33°C, ∞°C)
(ignoring the fact that ∞°C is something impossible because it means infinite energy, but for the given problem it works)
