What is the mean value of the six homes?
Tap to reveal answer
The mean is calculated by adding all the values in a group together, then dividing the sum by the total number in the group. In this case, six homes are for sale. The six home values are added together 
, then that value is divided by six.

The median is determined by ordering the values in the group from least to greatest: 155, 214, 305, 315, 535, 720. The value directly in the middle is the median. For instance, if there are five numbers, the third is the median. Here, we have an even number of values so there is no value directly in the middle. To find the median when there is no middle-most value, find the average of the two middle values. The mean is determined by adding the two values and dividing by two (the number in the group):

Find the median of the following number series:
3, 6, 27, 19, 8, 11, 30, 42, 7, 39

The first step to finding the median is always to put the numbers in the proper order:
3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 19, 27, 30, 39, 42
When we have an even amount of numbers, we find the average (or mean) of the middle two to get the median:
11 + 19 = 30/2 = 15

With a standard deck of playing cards, what is the probability of picking one red card followed by one black card, without replacement?
With a standard deck of playing cards, what is the probability of picking one red card followed by one black card, without replacement?
Tap to reveal answer
In a standard deck of playing cards we have:
So the probability of picking the first card red is 
.
Then the probability of picking the second card black is 
because this is without replacement.
They are independent events so the probabilities get multiplied together to give
