We lost your five test scores for a course a summary of your scores indicates that the mean was 88 the median was 87 and the mode was 92 what is the lowest possible number among your five missing scores

Respuesta :

Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 5 scores and the Mean of the scores =88

Total Scores=88X5=440

If Mode =92 and Median=87.

Mode us the number with the highest frequency.

Median is the middle term when arranged in ascending order.

Therefore, the numbers are:

x,y,87,92,92

92+92+87=271

The other two scores (x,y) add up to: 440-266=169

The average of the other two numbers is:

169/2 = 84.5

The minimum possible value of x is 84.
