Apologies for the error. Let's recalculate the measures of center:

mean: Sum of all numbers / Total number of values = (10 + 17 + 11 + 24 + 12 + 7 + 15 + 17 + 20 + 5 + 11 + 21 + 16 + 17) / 14 = 197 / 14 ≈ 14.071

To find the median, we need to rearrange the numbers in ascending order: 5, 7, 10, 11, 11, 12, 15, 16, 17, 17, 17, 20, 21, 24. Since we have an even number of values, the median will be the average of the two middle values. In this case, the middle values are 12 and 15, so the median is (12 + 15) / 2 = 27 / 2 = 13.5.

The mode is the number that appears most frequently in the dataset. In this case, the mode is 17, as it appears 3 times, while all other numbers appear only once.

Therefore, the correct measures of center are:
mean: 14.071
median: 13.5
mode: 17
