Let’s solve this step by step.
We are given a set of data points for “Age (years)” and “Height (inches)”. We need to find:
1. The
mean of the ages
2. The
median of the ages
3. The
mode of the ages
4. The
range of the ages
Then do the same for heights.

Step 1: List out the Age values
From the table, the ages are:
15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24
That’s 10 numbers.
---
Step 2: Find the Mean of Ages
Mean = sum of all values ÷ number of values
Sum = 15 + 16 + 17 + 18 + 19 + 20 + 21 + 22 + 23 + 24
Let’s add them:
15 + 24 = 39
16 + 23 = 39
17 + 22 = 39
18 + 21 = 39
19 + 20 = 39
That’s five pairs of 39 → 5 × 39 = 195
Number of values = 10
Mean = 195 ÷ 10 =
19.5
✔ Mean age = 19.5
---
Step 3: Find the Median of Ages
Median is the middle value when numbers are in order.
We already have them in order:
15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24
There are 10 numbers (even), so median is average of 5th and 6th values.
5th value = 19
6th value = 20
Median = (19 + 20) ÷ 2 = 39 ÷ 2 =
19.5
✔ Median age = 19.5
---
Step 4: Find the Mode of Ages
Mode is the number that appears most often.
Looking at the list:
15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24
Each number appears only once → no repeats.
So, there is
no mode.
✔ Mode age = None (or "no mode")
---
Step 5: Find the Range of Ages
Range = highest value - lowest value
Highest = 24
Lowest = 15
Range = 24 - 15 =
9
✔ Range age = 9
---
Now let’s do the same for
Height (inches).
Heights from the table:
65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74
Again, 10 values.
---
Step 6: Mean of Heights
Sum = 65 + 66 + 67 + 68 + 69 + 70 + 71 + 72 + 73 + 74
Pair them:
65 + 74 = 139
66 + 73 = 139
67 + 72 = 139
68 + 71 = 139
69 + 70 = 139
Five pairs of 139 → 5 × 139 = 695
Mean = 695 ÷ 10 =
69.5
✔ Mean height = 69.5
---
Step 7: Median of Heights
Ordered list:
65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74
Even number of values → average of 5th and 6th
5th = 69
6th = 70
Median = (69 + 70) ÷ 2 = 139 ÷ 2 =
69.5
✔ Median height = 69.5
---
Step 8: Mode of Heights
All values appear once → no repeats.
✔ Mode height = None (or "no mode")
---
Step 9: Range of Heights
Highest = 74
Lowest = 65
Range = 74 - 65 =
9
✔ Range height = 9
---
Final Answer:
For Age:
- Mean: 19.5
- Median: 19.5
- Mode: No mode
- Range: 9
For Height:
- Mean: 69.5
- Median: 69.5
- Mode: No mode
- Range: 9
