Answer

Population Mean of Ethan = 10, Range = 19 Population Mean of Drew = 10, Range = 19

Work Step by Step

Sum all the readings of catches by Ethan and Drew and divide by the number to find the mean. Sort the data in ascending order and subtract the highest value from the lowest value to find the range. Since the population mean and range of both fishermen are the same, there does not seem to be much of a difference between the two fishermen's daily catches.
