there are two "2"s in the data which leaves us with 6
OpenStudy (shelbywyatt):
6 is 0.75 of 8

So could you pwease put that in one sentence for me to put as part B Pwease :)
OpenStudy (shelbywyatt):
So 6 out of 8 values in the data differ from the mean which means 0.75 or 75% of the values in the data are likely to differ from the mean of "2".
