Given:

A graduate student in social work survey students at 10 colleges in a Midwestern state to find how many are single parents the results are the data below

471, 134, 316, 514, 810, 183, 419, 859, 246, 676

Required:

Find the above data set find the mean, the median, midrange and mode.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean (average) of a data set is found by adding all numbers in the data set and then dividing by the number of values in the set.

The median is the middle value when a data set is ordered from least to greatest.

The mode is the number that occurs most often in a data set.

The midrange of the data set is simply the value between the biggest value and the lowest value. In order to find the midrange of the data set the value is then divided by 2 after summing the lowest value present in the data set with the highest value present in the data set.

Now, Mean of dataset is 462.8

Median is 445.

Mode = All value of appeared once.

Midrange is 496.5

Answer:

Hence, above is the answer.
