Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ { \boxed{ \sf{mean \: = \: 42 \: , \: mode = 46}}}}}[/tex]

Option B is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

59 , 16 , 57 , 46 , 58 , 21 , 36 , 41 , 23 , 64 , 20 , 66 , 40 , 51 , 28 , 46

Σx ( sum of the items ) = 672

N ( total number of items ) = 16

Finding the mean

[tex] \boxed{ \sf{mean = \frac{sum \: of \: the \: items}{total \: number \: of \: items}}} [/tex]

[tex] \longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{672}{16} }}[/tex]

[tex] \longrightarrow{ \sf{42}}[/tex]

Mean = 42

Finding the mode

In the given data , 46 has the highest frequency.

So, mode = 46

Hope I helped!
