b. Determine the mean, median and mode of the given sets of data
c. Show the importance of mean, median and mode in real life situation

II. Subject Matter


Topic: Mean, median and mode
Reference: Math Book K-12
Materials: Laptop, PowerPoint presentation

III. Procedure

Teachers Activity Learners Activity


A. Preparatory Activities
1. Prayer
2. Cleaning of classroom
3. Checking of attendance
4. Checking of assignment
5. Review
Before we proceed to our new lesson.
Let us review our past lesson.
What was our past lesson?
Yes! Ronel? Our past lesson was Organizing data.

Very Good!

What are the kinds of organizing data?


Yes! Ana? The kinds of organizing data are: bar graph,
line graph, picto-graph, pie graph or pie
Very Good! chart.

B. Motivation
Now, we are going to have a game called
“DEAL OR NO DEAL.
Are you familiar with that game class? Yes Ma’am.

Let’s assume that we are in the final round.


I have three briefcases here. You are going to
choose one briefcase among them and then try

1
to answer the given problem. The one who gets
the correct answer will receive a fifty peso load.

Is that clear? Yes Ma’am.

Okay let’s start.

Who wants to volunteer?


Yes Joy? I will choose number 2, Ma’am,

Number 2.

Very Good!
The average is 96.
Another volunteer.
Yes James?

Number 1.

I will choose number 1, Ma’am.

The number that occurs the most is 3.

2
Excellent! Our lesson is about mean, median and
mode.
Number 3.

Yes Jonas? The answer is 50.

Very Good!

C. Presentation of the New Lesson


Based on the game, what do you think is our
lesson for today? Mean, Median, and Mode

Very Good!

Based on question number 2, how do you get


96??

Yes Aira? The student will answer.

How about on question number 1?

Yes Jerald? The student will answer.

What about question number 3?

Yes Jona? The students will answer.

D. Discussion
What is Mean?
 Average of a set of data
 To calculate the mean, find the
sum of the data.
 Then divide by the number of
data.

3
Symbol for mean: 𝑥̅
Formula: 𝑥̅ = ∑ 𝑥
𝑁

Example 1.
Find the mean for the following list of
values:

12, 15, 11, 11, 7, 13


69
𝑥̅ =
6

First, find the sum of the data.

12 + 15 +11 + 11 + 7 + 13 = 69

Then divide by the number of data.

x ̅ =69/6

Therefore, the mean is 11.5

Example 2.

An electronics store sells CD players at the


following prices: Php350.00, Php275.00,
Php500.00, Php325.00, Php100.00, Php375.00,
and Php300.00. What is the mean price?

Who wants to try?


Yes Jenny? First, find the sum of the data. Then divide
by the number of data.
𝑥̅ = ∑ 𝑥
𝑁
= 350 + 275 + 500 + 325 + 100 + 375 + 300
7
2225
= 7
= Php317.86
Excellent!

What is Median?
 The middle number in a set of data
 Arranged the data in numerical order
 Symbol for median: 𝑥̃

Example 3.
An electronics store sells CD players at the
following prices: Php350.00, Php275.00,
Php500.00, Php325.00, Php100.00, Php375.00,
and Php300.00. What is the median price?

Php350.00, Php275.00, Php500.00, Php325.00,


Php100.00, Php375.00, and Php300.00.

 First place the prices in numerical order.

Php100.00, Php275.00, Php300.00, Php325.00,


Php350.00, Php375.00, Php500.00
𝑥̃ = Php325.00

Example 4.
Find the median for the following list of values:
12, 15, 11, 11, 7, 13

Who wants to answer?


Yes Lucas? 12, 15, 11, 11, 7, 13
 First place the prices in
numerical order.
7, 11, 11, 12, 13, 15
 Then find the number in the middle
or the average of the two numbers in
the middle.

11 + 12 = 23 23/2 = 11.5

𝑥̃=
11.5
What is mode?
 The number that occurs the most.

Types of Mode
1. Unimodal
 a set of data with one mode.

Example:
2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 7, 8
The mode is 7.

2. Bimodal
 a set of data with two
modes. Example:

5
2, 2, 5, 6, 7, 7, 8
The modes are 2 and 7.

3. Trimodal
 a set of data with three modes.

Example:
8, 9, 9, 5, 5, 3, 3,19, 4
The modes are 9, 5 and 3.

4. Multimodal
 a set of data with four or more than
four modes.

Let us try to answer the following:

1. Find the mode of these numbers:


12, 15, 11, 11, 7, 13

Yes Gina? Mode = 11 and it is unimodal.

Very Good!

2. Find the mode of the given sets of data:


50, 80, 31, 50, 51, 59, 17, 17

Yes Rolly? Mode = 50 and 17 and it is bimodal.

Excellent!

3. Find the mode of 3, 8, 7, 6, 12, 11, 2, 1

Who wants to answer?


Yes Jiggy? There is no mode.

Very Good!

Last example,
Find the mode of the given sets of data:
8, 6, 6, 5, 5, 3, 3, 19, 4

Yes Ellaine? Mode = 6, 5 and 3. It is trimodal.

Excellent!

What is Range?

6
 is the difference between the largest
and the smallest number in the set.
Consider the following set:
40, 30, 43, 48, 26, 50, 55, 40, 34, 42, 47, 50

 To find the range you would take the


largest number and subtract the
smallest number.

55 – 26 = 29 Range is 29

E. Generalization
Class, based on our activity, kindly define
mean.

Very good!
What about the median?

Excellent!
Lastly, What is mode?
We can say that mode is the number that
frequently occurs.

Fantastic!
How do you solve for the mean? The students will answer.

Excellent!
What about for the median?

Very good!
What if there are 2 medians. What we will do?

Lastly, how do we get for the mode?

Understood class? Yes Ma’am.

F. Fixation of Skills
Find the mean, median and mode of each set of
data.
1. Andrea’s scores in 5 quizzes during the 1st
quarter are:
8, 7, 7, 6 , 7

7
2. A group of students obtained the
following scores in a math quiz:
2, 5, 3,6, 10, 4, 5

G. Valuing
Class, what is the importance of studying
“Mean, median and mode”?

How can you integrate it in real-life situation?

IV. Evaluation
Determine the mean, median and mode of the given sets of data.
