Question

Let me know if this is correct. I broke the responses into male and female categories. Two out of 15 females have been divorced one time each and three out of fifteen males have been divorced once also. So, below would be the appropriate mean, median and mode for the two categories:

For males:

10 x 0 + 3 x 1 = 3 divorces.

3/15 = 1/5 ≈0.20 Thus,.20 is the mean divorce males.

To find the median line up the data and find the middle data point:

0, 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0, 0, 0,1,1,1

Since 0 is in the middle, the mode is 0.

For females:

10 x 0 + 2 x 1 = 2 divorces.

2/15 = 2/15 ≈0.133 Thus,.133 is the mean divorce females.

To find the median line up the data and find the middle data point:

0, 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0, 0, 0,0,1,1

Since 0 is in the middle, the mode is 0.

Answer 1

Let me know if this is correct. I broke the responses into male and female categories. Two out of 15 females have been divorced one time each and three out of fifteen males have been divorced once also. So, below would be the appropriate mean, median and mode for the two categories:

For males:

10 x 0 + 3 x 1 = 3 divorces.

3/15 = 1/5 ≈0.20 Thus,.20 is the mean divorce males. √ (The mean number of divorces for males)

To find the median line up the data and find the middle data point:

0, 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0, 0, 0,1,1,1

Since 0 is in the middle, the [median] is 0.  (The mode is also 0 since it is the most frequently seen number.)

For females:

10 x 0 + 2 x 1 = 2 divorces.

2/15 = 2/15 ≈0.133 Thus,.133 is the mean number of divorces among  females. √

To find the median line up the data and find the middle data point:

0, 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0, 0, 0,0,1,1

Since 0 is in the middle, the mode is 0. (The MEDIAN is 0 because 0 is in the middle. The MODE is 0 because 0 occurs more frequently than any other number.)

Answer 2

It appears that the calculations for the mean, median, and mode for both male and female categories are correct based on the given data. However, it's important to note that the sample size is relatively small (15 for each category), so the results may not be representative of the entire population. Additionally, it's always a good idea to provide context and interpretation of the results to better understand what they mean in the given situation.
