Mean:
Mean is the average of a set of data. To calculate the mean,
find the sum of the data and then divide by the number of data. 12, 15, 11, 11, 7, 13 First, find the sum of the data. 12 + 15 +11 + 11 + 7 + 13 = 69 Then divide by the number of data. 69 / 6 = 11.5 The mean is 11.5 Median: Median is the middle number in a set of data when the data is arranged in numerical order. 12, 15, 11, 11, 7, 13 First, arrange the data 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 The median is 11.5 Mode: The mode is the number that appear most often in data set. 12, 15, 11, 11, 7, 13
The mode is 11.
➢ There can be no mode. ➢ There can also be more than one mode Mean The average
Median The number or
average of the numbers in the middle
Mode The number that
occurs most Standard Deviation: Standard deviation is the measure of dispersion of a set of data from its mean. Standard Deviation shows the variation in data. If the data is close together, the standard deviation will be small. If the data is spread out, the standard deviation will be large. Percentile: A percentile (or a centile) is a measure used in statistics indicating the value below which a given percentage of observations in a group of observations falls. For example, the 20th percentile is the value (or score) below which 20% of the observations may be found.
