Mean: $7$ $7$
Median: $6$ $6$
Mode: $6$ $6$

Explanation:

The mean is the average quantity measures by adding up all the numbers in a given set divided by how many numbers are there in that set:
If we add up all the given numbers, the sum is $35$ $35$ divided by how many numbers there are in total ( $5$ $5$ ) we get $7$ $7$ as the average.

The median can be found by listing the numbers in numerical order and crossing out a number on each left/right side until a middle number is reached:

$cancel(5),cancel(6),color(red)6,cancel(7),cancel(11)$

The median is $6$

The mode is the number that appears the most in a set. Here, $6$ is used twice whereas the other numbers are only used once. Therefore the mode is $6$
