Jenny has six cards.

Each card has a whole number written on it so that

t he smallest number is 5 the largest number is 24 the median of the six numbers is 14 the mode of the six numbers is 8

Jenny arranges her cards so that the numbers are in order of size.

For the remaining four cards, write on each dotted line a number that could be on the card.
