Final answer:
The mean of the set is 474.4, the median is 320.5, and the mode is 600.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the mean of a set of numbers, you add up all the numbers and divide the sum by the total number of values. In this case, the sum of the numbers is 298 + 600 + 559 + 343 + 226 + 106 + 262 + 601 = 3,795. There are 8 values in total, so the mean is 3,795 / 8 = 474.4 (rounded to one decimal place).
To find the median, you first arrange the numbers in ascending order: 106, 226, 262, 298, 343, 559, 600, 601. Since there are an even number of values, the median is the average of the two middle values, which in this case are 298 and 343. So, the median is (298 + 343) / 2 = 320.5.
The mode is the value that occurs most frequently in the set. In this case, the value 600 occurs twice, which is more than any other value. Therefore, the mode is 600.
