Answer:

56454

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

4,4,5,8,9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is 5 boys with a median of 5, that means that the third value is 5 and the first two value is lower than 5. Since the mode is 4 and it need to be repeated more than once, therefore the first and second value is 4. Since the mean is 6, that means that we can form the equation

(take x as the value of the last two numbers)

(4+4+5+x)/5=6

(13+x)/5=6

13+x=30

x=17

Since x cannot be higher than 9 and cannot be repeated more than once since the mode is 4, therefore x=8+9.
