Answer:

median: 8

mean: 7.7

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find median (the middle number is a set of data), you need to first put the numbers in order from least to greatest:

4, 5, 8, 8, 10, 11

Since there are two numbers in the middle - 8 and 8, you can add them together and divide by two to get the median:

8 + 8 = 16 ÷ 2 = 8

Mean is the average of the set of data and can be found by finding the sum of the data and dividing by the total number of data points.

4 + 5 + 8 + 8 + 10 + 11 = 46 ÷ 6 ≈ 7.7
