1. Mean 11, median 11, mode 11, range 9
Mean = 55 ÷ 5 = 11. Median = middle value in order = 11. Mode = most common = 11. Range = 15 − 6 = 9.
2. Mean 9.6, median 7, mode none, range 17
Mean = 48 ÷ 5 = 9.6. Median = middle value in order = 7. Mode = most common = no repeated value. Range = 19 − 2 = 17.
3. Mean 12.4, median 11, mode 7, range 13
Mean = 62 ÷ 5 = 12.4. Median = middle value in order = 11. Mode = most common = 7. Range = 20 − 7 = 13.
4. Mean 9.4, median 5, mode 5, range 16
Mean = 47 ÷ 5 = 9.4. Median = middle value in order = 5. Mode = most common = 5. Range = 20 − 4 = 16.
5. Mean 17.14, median 13, mode none, range 32
Mean = 120 ÷ 7 = 17.14. Median = middle value in order = 13. Mode = most common = no repeated value. Range = 34 − 2 = 32.
6. Mean 18.43, median 15, mode none, range 36
