What is the sum of the mean, median, and mode of the numbers $2,3,0,3,1,4,0,3$?

$\textbf{(A)}\ 6.5 \qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 7\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 7.5\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 8.5\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 9$

Solution

Putting the numbers in numerical order we get the list 0,0,1,2,3,3,3,4 The mode is 3 The median is (2+3)/2=2.5 The average is (0+0+1+2+3+3+3+4)/8=16/8=2 The sum of all three is 3+2.5+2=7.5
