To find the mean, add the numbers together and divide this answer by the number of numbers:

     mean  =  (1 + 2 + 5 + 2 + 8 + 0 + 6 + 15 + 12 + 7) / 10  =  58/10 = 5.8

 

To find the median, arrange the number by size and the median is the middle number:

     0, 1, 2, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12, 15

Since there is no middle number, find where the middle is (in this case between 5 and 6) and find the mean of those two numbers:  (5 + 6) / 2  =  11/2  =  5.5
