Answer 1

Well you would order them first from least to greatest...

2 , 3 , 4 , 4 , 5 , 7 , 7 , 8

Now get down to the middle number...look we have two...

4 and 5 are in the middle...so what we do...is we add them...and then divide by 2..(sounds a lot like the mean right?) ...so (4 + 5) / 2 equals...?

Answer 2

4.5.

Answer 3
