Answer:

Read explanation.

Explanation:

The average is -22.2 (mean)

-46,-39,-28,-28,-25,-17,-11.-6 You cross out the lowest and highest until you reach the middle, which is -26.5(median)

The mode is -28 as it is the most repeated number

The range is 40 as when you subtract a negative it turns into the absolute value.
