median= 4&3 range=3 mode= no mode
From the number set 1, 2, 3, 4, I can tell that the range is 3, The mean is 2.5, the median is 2.5, yet there is absolutely no mode.
range
The modes is the number which occurs most often. The range is the biggest number - the smallest number. The only way to have a mode of 10 and a range of 8, is to have the two numbers be 10 and 2. The numbers are different so each is a mode and the range is 10-2-8. Note, 2 is also a mode in the set {2,10}.
mean= 2, mode= 1 and 3, median= 3, and range= 2
