Median =
  Mean =

Answer 1

First, let's arrange the data set in numerical order: 3, 7, 9, 17, 24, 35, 45

Median: To find the median, we need to find the middle value of the data set. Since there are 7 numbers, the middle value is the 4th number, which is 17. Therefore, the median is 17.

Mean: To find the mean, we need to add up all the numbers and then divide by the total number of values.
(3+7+9+17+24+35+45)/7 = 140/7 = 20

Therefore, the mean is 20.

So, the median is 17 and the mean is 20 for the given data set.
