To Calculate: The mean, median and mode of the given data set.
Answer to Problem 12E
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The given data set is
Concept and Formula Used:
We use the concept of mean, median and mode.
Mean: The mean of n numbers is the sum of the numbers divided by n.
Median: The median is the middle number when the numbers are written in order. When n is even, median is the average of middle two numbers.
Mode: The number that occurs most frequently is called the mode. When two numbers tie for most frequent occurrence, the collection has two modes and is called bimodal.
Calculation:
The given data set is The given data set is
So,
Now, for median we arrange the data set in increasing order, so we get
And as the numbers in data is odd, so median is the middle number. So,
And as we see, 32 occurs the most frequent times, so the data set has mode
