Report your sample mean, median, mode, sample standard deviation, range, Q1, Q3, and IQR. Do not forget, we are looking at a sample set here, so we need to use the sample standard deviation. 

Mean=34.4705882 Median=30 Mode=23, 26, 47, 50 Standard deviation=10.636715 Range=29 Q1=25 Q2=30 Q3=46 IQR=21

Compare the measures of center (mean, median, mode). How similar or different are they? Does the relationship between the mean and median tell us anything about the symmetry/skew of the dataset? 

These summarize the data into a single value that is supposed to be representative of all of the values in the dataset. The mean and median are the most similar, they are representing similar things but the mean is the most accurate when talking about finding the middle of all of the data. The results of the mean and median are different enough to show that there is a slight skew in the dataset or else the numbers would be more reflective of each other. 

Look at the measures of spread (standard deviation, range, IQR). How do these compare to one another? What do they tell us about the spread of our dataset? 

These summarize the data in a way that shows how scattered the values are and and how much they differ from the mean value
