Answer 1

first wrigth the above data in asending order

the given data is

x=3 4 3 1 3 1 5 1 5 3 0 1 0 5 5 3 0 2 8 3 2 2 5 4

the assending order is

x= 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 5 5 5 5 5 8

mean=sum(x)/n

sum(x)=69

n=24

mean=69/24

mean= 2.875

The mean number of defects is 2.88

.Median=((n+2)/2)th obeservation

Median=((24+2)/2)th observation

Median=(13)th ovservation

Median=3

The median number of defects is 3.00

Mode=most repeated value

mode=3

The mode number of defects is 3.00
