Mean: 59.37
Median: 58.5

Range: 47
Step-by-step explanation
i. Mean
Add all the numbers given and divide by total number of scores given.
1781÷30=59.37
ii. Arrange all the numbers in ascending order. Since the given data has a total of 30 which is even, get the two middlemost scores and divide by 2.
58 and 59 are the middlemost score
So 58+59=117, 117÷2= 58.5
iii. Mode
The number that appears most frequently is the mode. In this case, 45 appeared 4 times so this is the Mode of the scores.
iv. Range
Just get the difference between the highest score and lowest score, that is the range.
88-41=47
