Explanation:

MEAN

add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are.

26+29+29+17+33+24+32+24+21+29/10

264/10

132/10 or 26.4

RANGE

The Range is the difference between the lowest and highest values.

lowest value: 17

highest value: 33

33-17= 16

MEDIAN

Arrange your number in numerical order:

17, 21, 24, 26, 29, 29, 29, 32, 33

Count how many numbers you have: 10

Since it's an even number divide 10 by 2: 5

Go to the number in that position and average it with the number in the next higher position to get the median.

5th position: 26

6th position: 29

26+29/ 2= 27.5

Therefore, the median is 27.5

MODE

To find the mode, or modal value, it is best to put the numbers in order. Then count how many of each number. A number that appears most often is the mode.

17, 21, 24, 24, 26, 29, 29, 29, 32, 33

Therefore, thee mode is 29
