total ages = 60 
Generally, if the mode is 8 would mean there are more than one age of 8 
suppose there are two with age 8, 
leaving 44 for the other 4 
(11 for the average of the remaining 4) 

could have 9 and 13, and 8 and 14 

so we could have: 
8,8,8,9,13,14 

or we could have: 
8,8,9,10,12,13 

check:of the 1st answer 
mean = (8+8+8+9+13+14)/6 = 10 
the mode is 8 

you check the 2nd case
