Jack has the following scores on exams in his math class.

Question

81, 87, 93, 89, 61, 81
If he wants to make his performance sound as good as possible, which measure should he use—the mean, the median, or the mode of his exam grades when he talks about how he is doing?

Answer 1

Figure out the mean, median, and mode. Which do you think shows his performance most to his advantage?

Answer 2

The mean?

Answer 3

Nope.

Answer 4

It would have to be the median?

Answer 5

What did you get for the mean, mode, and the median?

Answer 6

Mean 82
Median 3
Mode 81
The median? But I really do not understand it because it is such a low number? I am sorry I am trying to understand.

Answer 7

The median is not 3. The median is the middle number of a set.

61, 81, 81, 87, 89, 93

The middle of this set is the number between 81 and 87 = 84

Answer 8

I thought if I couldn't get it to subtract 81-87? So I just put 81, 82, 83, 84, 87? Then go from there to get my middle? ok And the best sounds like it would difinietely be 84. I am going to go back to my chapter and see what I forgot. Thanks Ms. Sue!

Answer 9

I got the same thing 3. our teacher we thought said to subtract the two middle and then divide it by two to get the median. We are confused.

Answer 29

How do I find the mean so it says every number but there is no 82 in there can someone tell me?

Answer 30

Mean is 82
Median is 84
The mode is 81

Answer 31

what is the correct answer please

Answer 32

The mean is 82, the Median is 84, and the mode is 81 due to it being shown more times than the other number in the data set. For the last thing, you need to choose which makes his exam grades sound as good as possible. If you took this exam what would you say for it to sound that you did well on your exam?
I'd say 84 because it's the highest and sounds the best. So, I'd say the median is the best option from the last step.

Answer 33

Thank You

Answer 34

Tell me how you solved it

Answer 35

The mean is 82, You find that by adding all of the numbers together and then dividing by 6 (the Amount of numbers in the set)
The median is 84. You put the numbers in numerical order, and the middle numbers are 81,87…You add those together and then divide by two.
The mode is 81, It is the number seeing most in the data set.

Answer 36

the mean is 82
the median is 84
and the mode is 81
also I would say the answer is the mode because it shows how many time he has gotten an 81, or you could say the mean or median your choice.

Answer 37

81, 87, 93, 89, 61, 81
Mean: 82
Median: 84
Mode: 81

The answer should be median then.
