Answer:

Lowest value: 24

Highest value: 84

Spread: 60

Center value: mean = 52.11

median = 53

Explanation:

Given data

35. 42, 65, 59,84.62.46. 52,24

let arrange is from smallest to largest

24, 35, 42, 46, 52, 59, 62, 65,84

Thus,

Lowest value = 24

Highest values = 84

Spread is the range of data

range is difference of highest and lowest value

spread = 84-24 = 60

Center value is mean and/or mean of data

mean = sum of data/ no. of data

no. of data = 9

mean = 24+ 35+ 42+ 46+ 52+ 59+ 62+ 65+84/9 = 469/9 = 52.11

median is the middle term when data is arranged in ascending order.

median is (n+1)/2 th term when no. of data is odd

median is (9+1)/2th term = 5th term

5 th term is 52

thus, median is 52.

Thus, solution is

Lowest value: 24

Highest value: 84

Spread: 60

Center value: mean = 52.11

median = 53
