1. The formula to calculate the mean: Mean = sum of x/n.
a) Mean = 85/10
= 8.5
b) Mean = 400/16
= 25
c) Mean = 35/45
= 0.78
d) Mean = 242/18
= 13.44
2. To determine the median, you must arrange all the scores within the data set in ascending order and find the middle number. If there is an even number of scores, take ...
