Answer:

mean = 19.54

median = 17

mode 16

range 52

Explanation:

17, 22, 34, 3, 16, 16, 24, 55, 18, 3, 16, 12, and 18

First put the numbers in order from smallest to largest

3, 3, 12, 16, 16, 16,17,18, 18,22,24, 34, 55

The mean is where you add up all the numbers and divide by the number of numbers

(3+ 3+ 12+ 16+ 16+ 16+17+18+ 18+22+24+ 34+ 55)/13

254/13

19.53846154

mean = 19.54

The median is the middle number

Since there are 13 numbers the middle number is 13/2 = 6.5 which rounds to 7

The 7th number is 17

median = 17

Mode is the number that appears most often

16 appears 3 times which is more often than any other number

mode 16

The range is the largest number minus the smallest number

55-3 = 52

range = 52
