The response of a sample of 1620 people who were asked if the air quality in their community is better or worse than it was 10 years ago are shown below. Find the mean, median, and mode of the data.

Better: 323, Worse: 333, Same: 420

Question: Find the mean.
Answer: There is no mean for this data

Question: Find the median
Answer: There is no median for this data

Choose the correct mode of data (better, same, worse, or the mode cannot be found)
Answer: The mode is worse

8.25

To find the mean, you would add up the number of people who answered "Better," "Worse," and "Same" and then divide that sum by the total number of responses. However, in this case, we only have the frequencies or counts of each response ("Better," "Worse," and "Same"), but we don't have the individual responses themselves. Therefore, we cannot calculate the mean since we don't have the actual values.

Similarly, to find the median, we would arrange the individual responses in ascending or descending order and locate the middle value. However, since we don't have the individual responses, we cannot calculate the median.

However, we can determine the mode, which is the value or category that appears most frequently. In this case, the mode is "Worse" because it has the highest frequency count of 333.
