Question

What is the mean and median for 126, 136, 150, 117, 150, and 143

Answer 1

The mean is 137 and the median can be 139

Step by step explanation:

To find the mean add all of the numbers up and divide them by 6.

To find the median, put all of the numbers in order (largest to smallest) and find the middle number. If there is no middle number then find the middle number in between those two numbers.

Answer 2

mean = 137

median = 139.5

Explanation:

To find the mean, add all the numbers together and divide by the number of numbers there is:

mean = (126 + 136 + 150 + 117 + 150 + 143)/6

mean = 822/6

mean = 137

To find the median, simply order the numbers from least to greatest, and find the middle term. Since there is an even number in this set, you will find the mean of the two middle terms:

median: 117 , 126 , 136 , 143 , 150 , 150

median = (136 + 143)/2

median = 279/2

median = 139.5
