6th grade math plz help me

Grace made a dot plot showing the distances she ran each day for two weeks.
She says that she usually runs 7 miles each day because that is the distance that occurs most often.
Do you agree with Grace’s reasoning?
Use the drop-down menus to explain and show your answer.

Dot plot named as ALTDCDistances RunALTDC has number line from 1 to 7. 1 dot on 1, 3 dots on 2, 3 dots on 3, 3 dots on 4 and 4 dots on 7 are given.




The mode, which is (3,4, or 7) ,(is or is not) a typical distance for the data. The median, which is (3.5,4, or 7),(is or is not) a typical distance for the data. The mean, which is (3,4, or 7) ,(is or is not) a typical distance for the data. So, Grace’s reasoning(is or is not ) correct.

Answer:

The mode, which is 7, is not a typical distance for the data. The median, which is 3.5, is not a typical distance for the data. The mean, which is 4, is a typical distance for the data. So, Grace’s reasoning is not correct.
