Mean is the sum of the data values divided by the number of data values. (you just add these 20 numbers and divide by 20)

Median is the middle number in an ordered set of data (these are the numbers: 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51 - number 48 is in the middle)

Mode is the data item that appears more often than any other data item (48 appears 6 times, which is the most)
