Find the​ mean, median, and mode of the​ data, if possible. If any of these measures cannot be found or a measure does not represent the center of the​ data, explain why.

A sample of seven admission test scores for a professional school are listed below. 11.8

9.7

9.8

9.7

10.6

9.7

11.0

Let's calculate the mean, median, and mode of the given data set:  
11.8, 9.7, 9.8, 9.7, 10.6, 9.7, 11.0.

### Step 1: Mean (Average)
To calculate the mean, sum all the values and divide by the total number of values.

\[
\text{Mean} = \frac{11.8 + 9.7 + 9.8 + 9.7 + 10.6 + 9.7 + 11.0}{7} 
\]

\[
= \frac{72.3}{7} \approx 10.33
\]

### Step 2: Median (Middle Value)
To find the median, first arrange the data in ascending order:

\[
9.7, 9.7, 9.7, 9.8, 10.6, 11.0, 11.8
\]

Since

Find the mean, median, and mode of the data, if possible. If any of these measures cannot be found or a measure does not represent the center of the data, explain why. A sample of seven admission test scores for a professional school are listed below: 11.8, 9.7, 9.8, 9.7, 10.6, 9.7, 11.0

This problem explores how to find the mean, median, and mode of a sample of test scores: 11.8, 9.7, 9.8, 9.7, 10.6, 9.7, 11.0. It explains each measure of central tendency and demonstrates the steps to calculate the values with detailed explanations.
