She would have to write (in no particular order): 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, and 7. The mean is (5+6+6+6+6+7) ÷ 6 = 36/6 = 6. The mode is 6, because there are more sixes than any other number. The median is 6, because if the six numbers are written in either descending or ascending order, the average of the two middle numbers (6 and 6) is 6. The range is 2, because the difference between the highest and lowest numbers (7 and 5) is 2.
