Answer:

The mean: 87 The median: 87

Explanation:

The mean is the average of all the number so you add them all up which comes out to 522 then you divide that number by how many scores there were (6) which comes out to 87 :)

The median is the number in the middle of all the test scores from lowest to greatest

79 85 86 / 88 91 93

since the number of scores is even there is not one in the middle so just find the mean between the middle two numbers (86 and 88) the answer is 87 ;)
