1. Eight people work in an office. They are paid hourly rates of 12£,15£,15£,14£,14£,13£,14£,13£

(a) Find: (i) the mean (ii) the median (iii) the mode. (b)Which average would you use if you want to claim that the staff were (i) well paid (i i) badly paid

mean=add all the numbers together to get total then divide that total by the number of amounts present 12, 15, 15, 14, 14, 13, 14, 13 =110, then 110/8=13.75 pounds

mode=arrange amounts in order (smallest to largest), then determine which amount appears more than the other amounts 12, 13, 13, 14, 14, 14, 15, 15 =14 appears the most

median=organize numbers from smallest to greatest, count how many there are, then determine which number appears in the middle of all of them 12, 13, 13, 14, 14, 14, 15, 15 = there are 8 numbers present but 14 is in the middle; answer =14

average= take total of mean, then divide it by the number of amounts that appear 110/8 =13.75
