Mean = 14.33333333

Median = 11

Mode= 9 and 11

Range  = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean, add all the numbers

(5+1+15+43+9+9+11+11+14+12+36+6) = 172

Divide by the number of numbers

172/12 = 14.33333333

Median is the middle number when listed from smallest to largest

1,5,6,9,9,11,11,12,14,15,36,43

Split into 2 even groups

1,5,6,9,9,11,    11,12,14,15,36,43

The middle is between 11 and 11

(11+11)/2 = 11

Mode is the number that appears mode often

This has 2 modes, 9 and 11

Range is largest number minus smallest number

43-1 = 42
