Find the three measures of central tendency (the mean, median, and mode). ​
3, 6, 10, 12, 29
​
A) mean = 10, median = 12, no mode
B) mean = 12, median = 10, no mode
C) mean = 10, median = 12, mode = 12
D) mean = 12, median = 10, mode = 12
E) mean = 10, median = 10, mode = 12

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The mean is calculated by adding all the numbers together and dividing by the number of numbers, which gives (3+6+10+12+29)/5 = 60/5 = 12. The median is the middle number when they are listed in order, which is 10 in this case. There is no mode because no number appears more than once.
