Activity 4.3 Central Tendency and Variability

Measures Direction: Solve the following problems as indicated.

1. USTP employees have the following monthly dues in thousand pesos to their
cooperative: 10, 40, 5, 20, 10, 25, 50, 30, 10, 5, 15, 25, 50, 10, 30, 5, 25 and 45. Find the
mean, median and mode.

Mean: 22.777 or 22.78

Median: 22.5
Mode: 10

2. Three students are named finalists in the search for A-1 Student of the Year. The
evaluation papers revealed the following scores of the students in five different areas:
Solve for the range and variance.
Student A 97 92 96 95 90
Student B 94 94 92 94 96
Student C 95 94 93 96 92

R = HV- LV
R= 97 – 90
R=7 Therefore, the range of the A-1 Student of the Year is 7.

Data xi - x̄ (xi - x̄)2 xi 1,410

x̄= = =94 then, x̄ = 94

 3. The number of incorrect answers on a true-or-false mathematics proficiency test for a
random sample of 20 students was recorded as follows: Solve for the standard
deviation.
