On five different tests Jake got: 75, 80, 81, 96, and 100. Would the mean of these numbers be greater than the median of these numbers?

Yes the mean is greater than the median

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean of numbers, you add all of them and divide them by how many there are in total.

75+80+81+96+100 = 432

There are five numbers so divide the total by 5.

432:5 = 86.4

That is your mean.

The median is the one in the middle. There are five numbers, so the one in the middle is 81.

The mean is 86.4 and the median is 81.

the mean is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

well mean is average so lets do that first

to find the mean, you add all of the percentages up and divide it by the amount of percentage

75 + 80 + 81 + 96 + 100 = 155 + 177 + 100 = 432

and now you divide 432 by 5 to get 86.4

so the mean is 86.4

and the median is the middle:

75 80 81 96 100

↑

81 is the median since its in the middle

86.4 > 81

so the mean is greater than the median
