find the mean, median and mode of the data. 15,12,13,12,17,12,14,14
Answers
Arranging data in ascending order
12,12,12,13,14,14,15,17
Total number of observation (n) = 8
mean = sum of all observation / total observation = 12+12+12+13+14+14+15+17/8
=109/8 = 13.62
mode = observation which repeats many times
= 12
median = (n/2)th term + (n+1/2)th term/2
= (8/2)th term +( 8 + 1/2)th term /2
= 4th term + 5th term /2
4 th term = 13 and 5th term = 14
13 + 14 /2 = 26/2 = 13

answer with Step-by-step explanation:
Mode is the frequently occurring observation in a data.
We shall first arrange the data in ascending order(we can even arrange it in descending order)
12,12,12,13,14,14,15,17
12-3 times
13-1 times
14-2 times
15-1 times
17-1 times
So, 12 is the mode
Median is the middle most observation.
n(number of observations)=8 (even)
(n/2+n/2+1/2)/th observation will be the median
8/2+8/2+1/2=4th + 5th observation/2
Median=27/2=13.5
mean=sum of all observation/total no. of observation
∴ =12+12+12+13+14+14+15+17/8
=109/8
MEAN=13.625
