Answer: D - The mean of the date is greater than the median

Explanation:

First, you line all the numbers up from least to greatest:

25, 26, 31, 33, 38, 39, 48, 58

Next, you find the median, or in this case, 35.5

Now you find the mean, and do that by adding all the numbers up (298) and then divide that by the number of people, or 8, which would be 37.25

Thus, the mean is greater than the median

Data in increasing order:

25, 26, 31, 33, 38, 39, 48, 56

mean = (25 + 26 + 31 + 39 + 33 + 56 + 38 + 48)/8 = 37

median = (33 + 38)/2 = 35.5

mode = no mode
