Given the data set:
PERIOD 5:{36, 34,26,16,30,45,36,40,32,25,30, 30, 34, 26, 42, 27, 28, 29, 20, 28, 34, 30, 37, 24, 34, 30, 36, 40, 36, 20}
PERIOD 6:
{39,42,30,26,36,30,36,33,28,32,32,27.5,42,18,28,27,34,35,35,26,30,25,33.3,55,30,24,62,4,40,33,42}
1) calculate mean median and mode.
2) multiply each number by 2.54, then calculate the mean, median and mode of the new data set
3) add 3 to each number in the original distribution and again calculate mean median and mode.
