Can some one please help my son he has brought home a math question?

Question

marcus drew 8 cards from a pile 10,8,4,5,8,6,12,1find the following landmarks maximum,median,range,minimum? please help he is in the 5th grade and i cant help him,i am lost?

Answer 1

The maximum is the largest card he drew.  That would be 12.

The range is the difference between the largest card he drew and the smallest.  That would be 12 - 1 = 11

The minimum is the smallest card he drew.  That would be 1.

The median is the card in the middle - the one such that half the cards are larger and half smaller.  Sort them first:

1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 8, 10, 12

The median comes between 6 and 8, so call it 7.

Answer 2

the range is 11,

because the lowest number is 1, and the highest number is 12, and the difference between those 2 numbers is 11.

the median is the middle number.

1, 4, 5, *6, 8*, 8, 10, 12

so the answer is 7 for median because 7 is in the middle of 6 and 8

maximum meaning highest number 12 (?)

and minimum meaning lowest number 1(?)

im just assuming for those two.
