Question

Write down five numbers so that:the mean is 6,the median is 5 and the mode is 4

Answer 1

4 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 11

Explanation:

Mode = 4

So at least two times 4 should be there in the data.

And median is 5. So the middle term ( 3rd term} should 5.

Let x and y be the 4th term and 5th term

Data set:

4 , 4 , 5 , x , y

Mean =6

`(4+4+5+x+y)/(5)=6\\`

4+4+5 +x + y = 6*5

13 + x + y = 30

x + y = 30 - 13

x + y = 17

x ,y can be any numbers that sum up to 17.

x , y can be 10 , 7 or 6, 11

Data set: 4 , 4 , 5 , 6, 11
