  2. 2. Mean 11.8, median 17, mode none, range 19

    Mean = 59 ÷ 5 = 11.8. Median = middle value in order = 17. Mode = most common = no repeated value. Range = 20 − 1 = 19.

  3. 3. Mean 10.8, median 11, mode none, range 8

    Mean = 54 ÷ 5 = 10.8. Median = middle value in order = 11. Mode = most common = no repeated value. Range = 15 − 7 = 8.

  4. 4. Mean 14.6, median 18, mode 18, range 14

    Mean = 73 ÷ 5 = 14.6. Median = middle value in order = 18. Mode = most common = 18. Range = 18 − 4 = 14.

  5. 5. Mean 19.14, median 13, mode 13, range 30

    Mean = 134 ÷ 7 = 19.14. Median = middle value in order = 13. Mode = most common = 13. Range = 34 − 4 = 30.

  6. 6. Mean 15.57, median 13, mode none, range 37

    Mean = 109 ÷ 7 = 15.57. Median = middle value in order = 13. Mode = most common = no repeated value. Range = 40 − 3 = 37.

  7. 7. Mean 20.57, median 18, mode 18, range 32

    Mean = 144 ÷ 7 = 20.57. Median = middle value in order = 18. Mode = most common = 18. Range = 36 − 4 = 32.

  8. 8. Mean 18.14, median 23, mode none, range 32

Common mistakes

What learners typically get wrong, and how to fix it.

  • Finds the median without ordering the data.

    Correction: Always put the numbers in order first.

  • Gives the range as the two end numbers.

    Correction: Range is one number: largest minus smallest.

Teacher tips

  • · Collect real class data (heights, shoe sizes).

Parent tips

  • · Work out your average bedtime over a week.

Real-life applications

  • · Sports averages, typical prices, test scores.
