Step 1 
The following frequency table can be used to organize the data:
xF(x)xF(x)05011212214283394285315717Total4079 
Hence the mean is given by: 
Mean=xF(x)F(x)=7940=1.975 
Step 2 
The data that falls in the middle is the median of the data.
The median for this data is 3. 
The mode of the data is the data with the highest frequency 
The mode from table is 2.
