Order the number:
15,34,71,75,75,78,78,78,82,90,90,94,100
Mode:78
Mean≈74.8
Median:78 is your final answer. Hope it help!

Answer:

Mean=74.78

Median=78

Mode=78

Explanation:

1. First order the data set from the from least to greatest:

15 34 71 75 75 78 78 78 82 87 90 90 94 100

2. To find the mean, add all the numbers and divide the result by the number of data.


x=(15+34+71+75+75+78+78+78+82+87+90+90+94+100)/(14)


x=(1047)/(14)

3. Since you have an even data set, to find the median you take the two values of the middle of the data set and find the average between them:


median=(78+78)/(2)


median=(156)/(2)


median=78

4. The mode is the most repeated value, in this case, value 78 is repeated 3 times so this value is the mode of the data set.
