Question

Here is a list of the numbers of fish that Tyler caught in nine outings last summer: 2,0,1,3,0,3,3,1,2. Which statement about the mean, median, and mode is true?

Accepted Answer

First, put the numbers in increasing order. 0,0,1,1,2,2,3,3,3 The mean is 0+0+1+1+2+2+3+3+39 = 159, the median is 2, and the mode is 3. Because, 159 < 2 < 3, the answer is mean < median < mode
