First, let's find the mean. To do this, we add up all the numbers in the dataset and then divide by how many numbers there are. So, 5 + 3 + 8 + 4 + 3 + 6 + 17 + 3 + 5 + 3 is 57. Then, we divide 57 by 10 (because there are 10 numbers) to get the mean, which is 5.7.
Next, let's find the median. The median is the middle number when the numbers are put in order from smallest to biggest. So first, let's put the numbers in order: 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 8, 17. Since there are 10 numbers, the median is the average of the 5th and 6th numbers, which are 4 and 5. So, (4 + 5) / 2 is 4.5.
Finally, let's find the mode. The mode is the number that appears most often in the dataset. In this case, the number 3 appears the most times, 4 times. So, the mode is 3.
So, the mean is 5.7, the median is 4.5, and the mode is 3.

The mean of the dataset {5,3,8,4,3,6,17,3,5,3} is 5.7 because we added up all the numbers and divided by 10. The median, which is the middle number when the numbers are in order, is 4.5. This is the average of the 5th and 6th numbers in the dataset. The mode, or the number that appears most often, is 3 because it shows up 4 times. Therefore, the mean is 5.7, the median is 4.5, and the mode is 3.
