Answer 4

This one is really quite simple, if you understand what the mean and mode are.

The mode is the most frequent score. Since there are only three scores, and the mode is 11, it must occur more than any other score. That is, 11 occurs twice.

Since the mean is 9, the sum of the three scores is 3*9 = 27.

Since two of the scores are 11, the third score must be 5, since

11+11+5 = 27
