What is the MEDIAN of 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77?HINT ::
The median is the middle value, so I'll have to rewrite the list in order:
13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21
There are nine numbers in the list, so the middle one will be the (9 + 1) ÷ 2 = 10 ÷ 2 = 5th number:
13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21
So the median is 14.
Correct Answer
D. 44
Explanation
The median is the middle value when the numbers are arranged in ascending order. In this case, the numbers are 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77. When arranged in ascending order, the list becomes 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77. Since there are seven numbers in the list, the middle number will be the (7 + 1) ÷ 2 = 8 ÷ 2 = 4th number. Therefore, the median is 44.

What is the MEAN of 12, 87, 9, 4, 73, 14?
HINT :: The mean is the usual average, so ::
(13 + 18 + 13 + 14 + 13 + 16 + 14 + 21 + 13) ÷ 9 = 15
The "mean" is the "average" you're used to, where you add up all the numbers and then divide by the number of numbers. The "median" is the "middle" value in the list of numbers. To find the median, your numbers have to be listed in numerical order, so you may have to rewrite your list first. The "mode" is the value that occurs most often. If no number is repeated, then there is no mode for the list.
Correct Answer
D. 199
Explanation
The mean of a set of numbers is found by adding up all the numbers and then dividing the sum by the total number of numbers. In this case, the sum of 12, 87, 9, 4, 73, and 14 is 199. Since there are 6 numbers in the set, the mean is 199 divided by 6, which equals 33.17.

What is the RANGE of 4, 17, 1, 863, 154, 344, 7?
HINT :: The largest value in the list is 21, and the smallest is 13, so the range is 21 – 13 = 8.
13, 16, 18, 19, 21,
Correct Answer
C. 862
Explanation
The range is the difference between the largest and smallest values in a set of numbers. In this case, the largest value is 862 and the smallest value is 1. Therefore, the range is 862 - 1 = 861.
12.
What is the MODE of 11, 78, 96,11, 7, 45, 45, 78, 45?
HINT :: The mode is the number that is repeated more often than any other, so 13 is the mode.
13, 13, 13, 18, 19, 19, 20, 21
Correct Answer
E. 45
Explanation
The mode is the number that appears most frequently in a set of data. In the given set of numbers, the number 45 appears three times, which is more than any other number. Therefore, the mode of the set is 45.
