A dataset has values: 4, 7, 7, 9, 13. What is the median?
Answer: 7
The data is already sorted. The middle value (3rd of 5) is 7.
If you flip a fair coin twice, what is the probability of getting heads both times?
Answer: 1/4
P(H and H) = 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/4, since the flips are independent events.
A bar graph shows sales of 200, 350, and 150 for three months. What is the total?
Answer: 700
Sum all values: 200 + 350 + 150 = 700.
What is the range of the dataset: 12, 5, 8, 19, 3?
Answer: 16
Range = maximum - minimum = 19 - 3 = 16.
A bag contains 3 red, 5 blue, and 2 green marbles. What is the probability of drawing a blue marble?
Answer: 1/2
Total marbles = 10. P(blue) = 5/10 = 1/2.
The mean of five test scores is 82. If four scores are 78, 85, 90, and 75, what is the fifth score?
Answer: 82
Total = 82 × 5 = 410. Sum of four = 328. Fifth score = 410 - 328 = 82.
