Find the mean, median, and mode of the data set: 45, 52, 17, 63, 57, 42, 54, 58.(1 point)

1 answer

To find the mean, add all the numbers together and then divide by the total number of numbers.

45 + 52 + 17 + 63 + 57 + 42 + 54 + 58 = 388

Mean = 388 / 8 = 48.5

To find the median, first, rearrange the numbers in ascending order:

17, 42, 45, 52, 54, 57, 58, 63

Since there are 8 numbers, the median is the average of the middle two numbers:

Median = (52 + 54) / 2 = 53

To find the mode, identify the number(s) that appear most frequently in the data set:

The mode is 0 because all numbers only appear once.
