Answer :
Final answer:
The mean is 221 and the median is 212.5 that is option B is correct.
Explanation:
The mean, or average, is calculated by summing up all the numbers in the set and dividing the sum by the total number of values. In this case, the sum is 202 + 199 + 223 + 198 + 223 + 223 + 301 + 199 = 1768. The total number of values is 8, so the mean is 1768/8 = 221.
The median is the middle value when the numbers are arranged in ascending order. After sorting the numbers, we have: 198, 199, 199, 202, 223, 223, 223, 301. There are 8 numbers, so the median is the average of the 4th and 5th numbers, which is (202 + 223)/2 = 212.5.
