Mike was in charge of collecting contributions for the food bank. he recevied contributions of $80, $70, $60, $40 and $80. find the mean and the median of the contributions.

Answer 1

it is B

Explanation:

$80 dollars

Answer 2

First, order them in the order of smallest to largest, which is 40, 60, 70, 80, 80. Then, since there are 5 numbers, the 3rd number, which is 70, would be the median.
Then, add all numbers:
40+60+70+80+80=330
and divide that by 5:
330/5=66
So, the median is 70 and the mean is 66.
