ASSIGNMENT

Define and give 5 examples of the following:

1. Mean
2. Median
3. Mode

1. Mean – is the average of data set.

Examples:
a. 2, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
Mean = (2+2+4+6+8+10+12)/7
= 44/7
= 6.28
b. 21, 12, 33, 24, 22, 21, 103, 12, 56
Mean = (21+12+33+24+22+21+103+12+56)/9
= 304/9
= 33.7
c. 19, 16, 22, 30, 19, 17, 100
Mean = (19+16+30+19+17+100)/7
= 223/7
= 31.85
d. 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 20, 70
Mean = (10+20+30+40+50+20+70)/7
= 240/7
= 34.28
e. 6, 5, 3, 7, 2, 1, 4
Mean = (6+5+3+7+2+1+4)/7
= 28/7
=4

2. Median – is the middle of the set of numbers.

Examples:
a. 3, 5, 12
5 is the median number.
b. 3, 5, 7, 12, 13, 14, 21, 23, 23, 23, 23, 29, 39, 40, 56
23 is the median number.
c. 14, 55, 63
the median is 55.
d. 4, 17, 77, 25, 22, 23, 92, 82, 40, 24, 14, 12, 67, 23, 29
The median value of this set of numbers is 24.
e. 11,22,33,55,77
the median is 33.

3. Mode – is the most common or frequent number in a data set.

Examples:
a. 3, 5, 7, 12, 13, 14, 20, 23, 23, 23, 23, 29, 39, 40, 56
 the mode is 23.
b. 8, 15, 19, 19, 28, 29, 35
19 is the mode.
c. 3, 9, 6, 6, 6, 5, 9, 3
6 is the mode.
d. 14, 15, 9, 11, 11, 11, 15, 7, 13, 12
11 is the mode
e. 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 6
4 is the mode
