Sum of ratings of dumb pizza = 16
Median =2
Mode=2 hence mode must be there at least two times this we have to distribute 16-4 =12 ratings among three such that
_2 2_ _
The only possibility is 2 2 2 5 5 . If you try any other combos the sum might fall short or mode would change
Range =3

Sum of pizza king = 17
_ _ 3 _ _
Since mode is 3, this 3 must be present twice and we have to distribute 11 ratings among three
We cannot have two 5s as the mode won’t be 3 anymore hence the only way to fill this is 2 3 3 4 5 hence Highest rating =5

1. Max Range can be 5-1 = 4 => only left with 3
2. If Mean = 3.4 =. at least max number is more than 3, since 4 is not present answer is 5
