Mean: 49.6
Median: 52
Mode: 54

For the median, we have to put the data in order:

37, 42, 48, 51, 52, 53, 54, 54, 55.

The middle number is the median: 52 (there are 4 numbers higher and 4 numbers lower than 52)

The mode is the number that occurs most often. 54 is the only one that shows up more than once.

To get the money, we add all the numbers, which = 446. Then divide that by how many numbers there are (9)
446/9 = 49.555555 = 49.6

Answer:

Explanation:

mode is means the data which is repeated maximum number of times.

here 54 is repeated maximum number of times so the mode of the given data is 54.

to calculate median u must arrange the data from ascending to descending order.

37 , 42 , 48 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 54 , 55 ,

median = (N + 1) /2 (N means number of data)

=9 + 1/2

=10/2

=5 th term

=52
