Solution

The number of goals scored by the team is 2, 3, 4, 5, 0, 1, 3, 3, 4, 3
$M e a n o f d a t a = \frac{S u m o f a l l o b s e r v a t i o n s}{T o t a l n u m b e r o f o b s e r v a t i o n s}$
$M e a n s c o r e = \frac{2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 0 + 1 + 3 + 3 + 4 + 3}{10}$
$= \frac{28}{10}$
= 2.8

Arranging the number of goals scored in ascending order,
0,1, 2,3, 3,3,3,4,4,5
The number of observations is 10, which is an even number.
Therefore, median score will be the mean of $\frac{10}{2}$ i.e., 5th and $\frac{10}{2} + 1$ i.e., 6th observation while arranged in ascending or descending order.
$M e d i a n s c o r e = \frac{5 t h o b s e r v a t i o n + 6 t h o b s e r v a t i o n}{2}$
$= \frac{3 + 3}{2}$
$= \frac{6}{2}$
=3

Mode of data is the observation with the maximum frequencyin data. Therefore, the mode score of data is 3 as it has the maximum frequency as 4 in the data.
