What are the mean median mode and range of the data set given?

The altitude of lakes in feet -9, -36, -23, -8, -17, -52, -27, and -36

A. mean=-25; median=-26; mode=-44; range=36
B. mean=-25; median=-36; mode=-36; range=44
C. mean=-26; median=-25; mode=-36; range=44
D. mean=-26; median=-44; mode=-25; range=36
What is your answer?
**ANSWER: A mean = –28.5, median = –29.1, mode = –49, range = 40

First put them in order
- 49, - 49 , - 43 , -39 , -18, -14, -12, -9
Add the two middle numbers -39 and -18, it equals -57
Divide - 57 and 2, it equals - 28.5 <--- MEAN

Second add all the numbers together, it equals - 233, then divide by 8, which equals
- 29.1 <---MEDIAN

MODE is the number that happens most, which is -49 <--- MODE

The range is -49 - ( -9 ) = - 40 <-----RANGE
Lorraine I think your work is for another question. The work for the correct question is below. Its ok I get ditzy moments too. Have a nice day!!

ANSWER: mean = –25; median = –26; mode = –44; range = 36

Put them in order
-52, - 36, -36, -27, -23, -17, -9, -8

Select the two numbers in the middle - 27 and - 23,
- 27 + ( -23) = - 50
Divide -50 and 2
-50 / 2 = - 25 <---- MEAN

To find the Median, add all the numbers
-52 + - 36 + -36 + -27 + -23 + -17 + -9 + -8 = 208

Divide 208 and 8
-208 / 8 = - 26 <---- MEDIAN

I think you can figure out the Range and Mode yourself.
thanks 4 this i can find the range n mode myself
i cant...
