Hello! First, let's write the numbers of the data:

12, 15, 13, 10, 15, 10

#1) mean of the data: we will sum all the numbers and divide by the amount of them.


(12+15+13+10+15+10)/(6)=(75)/(6)=12.5

#2) median of the data: first, we have to put the numbers in crescent order:

10, 10, 12, 13, 15, 15

Then, we have to select the middle number (if we don't have 1, we will calculate the mean of the two in the middle). In this case, we have 12 and 13


(12+13)/(2)=(25)/(2)=12.5

#3) mode of the data: is the number that appears at most in the data.

In this exercise, 10 and 15 appears twice, so we have two modes and can name them bimodal.

Mode = 10 and 15

#4) range of the data: is the difference between the bigger to the smaller value. In this exercise, the biggest is 15 and the smallest is 10, so 15 - 10 = 5 is the range.
