Please take a look at this homework.
http://www.geocities.com/tobie_cantu/homework.jpg

It seems that there is not enough information on the page. My son says this is all that they gave him, no other paper.

I can't make head or tail over what they want him to do. You can't get a median without a row of numbers- and no row. You can't get a range with out a high and a low- no high and no low.

The dashes inbetween each are for the letters from the right to be matched to the letters on the left.

They told him the first answer on the page was "c"

Do you know what they want him to do?
